To celebrate the King's 80th birthday, tickets to visit Elvis at The O2: The Exhibition of His Life on Thursday 8 January only will be available for just £8.00.

These limited tickets are on-sale now from Tuesday 6 January and can be booked via www.elvisattheo2.com

Elvis at The O2: The Exhibition of His Life at The O2, London is the largest Elvis™ retrospective ever mounted in Europe. Since opening in December 2014, the exhibition featuring over 300 artefacts direct from the Presley family's treasured Graceland Archives, has received rave reviews from fans and the media alike.

Exhibition director Nic Wastell says: "The reaction to the exhibition has been phenomenal, so we wanted to do something for the fans to celebrate the King of Rock 'n' Roll's 80th birthday on 8 January. We are delighted to be offering tickets for one day only at £8.00 and we hope fans will join us at The O2 on this monumental day. No exhibition mounted previously has ever been so revealing of the man and the star. For people who can't get to Graceland, Graceland is coming to them."

Elvis at The O2: The Exhibition of His Life chronicles the rise of the rock 'n' roll icon and how Elvis impacted popular culture around the world through his music, movies and personal style. From his humble beginnings to his meteoric rise to fame, the exhibition will explore Elvis mania that first swept America and then the world, ground-breaking recording sessions, record-breaking concert tours, his military service, Hollywood film career and influence on fashion. Most importantly, visitors will get an intimate peek behind the gates of Graceland and come to know the man hailed as the King of Rock 'n' Roll, who strived to be the best possible, father, son and friend.

The nine month exhibition runs until the end of August 2015 and the incredible artefacts include automobiles, personal items, historical documents, iconic stage costumes, guitars, gold and platinum records, and photography, in addition to dazzling audio and video presentations. Even the famous pool table Elvis played on with The Beatles will be on display.

Other items from Graceland seen in London for the first include:
- "TCB" (Taking Care of Business) ring, 16 total karats with a centre solitaire of 11.5 karats
- American Eagle jumpsuit from Elvis: Aloha From Hawaii
- Red 1960 MG Roadster from the film Blue Hawaii
