Elvis Presley Wasn’t Always Buried at Graceland — Here’s Why He Was Moved originally appeared on Parade. Elvis Presley wasn't always buried at his beloved Graceland home, and the reason why his body was moved is still compelling, 47 years after his death.

Presley's historic home has recently opened two exhibits: Graceland in Red, which recreates Elvis's French Provençal-style living room from 1974, and Colonel Parker 's World of Show Business, which offers a look at Elvis's manager's life.

Elvis Week 2025 will mark the 48th anniversary of Elvis Presley's death with a variety of events, including the Candlelight Vigil, at Graceland.
