Throngs of Elvis enthusiasts commemorate their rock 'n' roll idol at a bash in Bad Nauheim. Wearing crinolines, beehive hairdos, and sideburns, attendees honor the music icon at the 22nd installment of the "European Elvis Festival."

Until Sunday, there's music from Elvis Presley and his era at soirees and gigs. A special display focuses on the live concerts of the American diva, displaying authentic items from her inventory like attire, instruments, documents, and publicity posters.

The "Ruler" used to be stationed in close-by Friedberg from October 1958 to March 1960 and lived in Bad Nauheim during that timeframe. Curious spectators can explore original sites on guided excursions.

This year's VIPs consist of Elvis' long-term bassist Jerry Scheff and Elvis' cousin Donna Presley. An enthusiast market promises to serve collectors.

Moreover, a Classic Car Parade featuring Cadillacs and other vintage cars encourages guests to journey back in time to the 1950s and 1960s. The festivities in Bad Nauheim had already attracted a massive crowd on Friday night.
