About Us

The first Elvis FANtasy fest was held in 1993 and is sponsored by the Taking Care of Presley Memorial Benefit Committee.  It's mission is to perpetuate a fund for charity in remembrance of Elvis Presley and his music legacy. 

Our goal for the fund raising is to emmulate Elvis' own humanitarism and give to others in need.  Proceeds from the event are donated to Special Olympics for scholarships for needy athletes and the funds are used to expand their programs. 

The event is organized by an all volunteer committee and we wish to thank the Special Olympic parents, athletes, fans, tribute artists, and all those who have donated of their time, talents, and monies to the success of the event. 

The festival is a weekend event and offers entertainment, food and Elvis vendors along with special guests who were associates or friends of Elvis Presley. 

There is also an annual car show associated with the event held at Portage Commons in August which begins our advertising of the event in October. 

As of 2010, because of YOU, Elvis's fans, the Elvis FANtasy Fest has given over $275,000 to charities in remembrance of the greatest entertainer of all time, Elvis Presley.  

God bless each of you!! 

We wish to thank especially Elvis Presley Enterprises,  the PORTAGE PARKS DEPARTMENT and the Porter County Convention, Recreation and Visitor Commission for their help and cooperation with the EFF.
