If you go expecting it to be really terrible then you will not be disappointed.
Not really any reference to the late great Elvis for the first hour so we asked how we could leave & were told the next bit was when it gets good… I hope it did improve for those that stayed!
Big note to the production team - maybe get the Elvis songs in from the start!

Massive let down. Dont Go
The show was a massive let down & disappointment.
I agree with all these negative comments on here.
The experience was very amateurish, corny, gimmicky, unprofessional. Too much time spent on poor rate actors talking about Elvis life and not enough of seeing Elvis or his songs. Again I agree with others, that we were sold a fraud experience as it was advertised last year as hologram/AI and we were given a boring third rate acting experience. The company who were responsible for creating this awful experience should be ashamed. How could they present this as a nice and enjoyable customer experience? I was looking forward to an uplifting time packed with Elvis songs , instead of long gaps and waiting times in between set changes. When we moved to the acting room after the interval/bar area, we had a 10 minute wait in silence before the final act was delivered which again was crass entertainment. Why didn't they play Elvis music while we had this wait, instead of just looking at a blank bare stage in silence, with just the other customers blank disappointed faces around the room!!
There was an eerie embarrassed silence as we all vacated the room when the experience came to an abrupt end. I guess we were all awaiting the grand finale which didn't happen!!

What a huge disappointment
What a huge disappointment. As I am a very keen Elvis fan my family thought this would be the ideal birthday present for me. I wished they had saved their money. From start to finish it was extremely poor, a very amateurish performance and nothing like it was advertised. Food and drinks were expensive. We had photos taken as we went in and they were dreadful, so tacky and again expensive. The only part of the experience worth seeing was the final 10 or more minutes with video of Elvis singing and 3 live musicians playing on stage in what was supposed to be a replica of his comeback show.
A total waste of time and money.

Layered Reality the ticketing agents are a terrible company! The show is absolute rubbish, the company will not issue refunds, event the refund insurance I paid for will not pay out the £150 I misleadingly paid because I was grossly miss sold a show that obviously does NOT live up to expectations!!!!

Room for improvement
Overall enjoyed the experience with friends of different ages, however I do feel the use of AI was lacking could have used it further for the 68 special show.., then I think they should of brought an Elvis impersonator on, as there are very good ones out there and would have added to the 68 special show, as an Elvis fan,it was good to hear stories of him, and the bars where fun . But room for improvement.

Save your money
I’m really sorry but this isn’t very good. The first half is very focused on his childhood friend and the 2nd half is available on You Tube. The staging is good but I can’t be any more positive. When we went through to the after show bar the live band literally went off stage before our group (about 50 people) had a chance to sit down. It just summed up the experience. Gutted.

Amazing Experience
Really enjoyed the 4D train ride, made me feel like i was actually there and the actors were AMAZING! ♡ amazing bars aswell, totally in love with blue Hawaii bar and drink was lush! Then the All shook up bar was lovely too and we stayed for around 30mins only because had to catch train back but could of stayed much much longer!
Deffo recommended for any Elvis fan!

P*** poor performance - hugely disappointing
I attended Elvis Evolution after my original June booking was postponed and rescheduled. What was delivered was nothing like what was advertised at the time of sale.
When tickets first went on sale, the show was heavily promoted as featuring a life-sized, AI-powered holographic Elvis, similar to ABBA Voyage. This was the sole reason I booked. The CEO of Layered Reality repeatedly promised an “AI-powered, digital Elvis Presley performing live on stage” in interviews and press releases.
However, when I finally attended, there was no hologram, no AI Elvis, and no immersive performance as promised. Instead, it was a basic stage show with video projections and a small live band. Reviews in the press have echoed exactly the same disappointment, the main advertised attraction simply wasn’t there.
Worse still, when the event was delayed, I was not offered a refund, only a rebooking link. Customers were never properly informed that the original advertised features had been scrapped. This is a serious case of misrepresentation.
The official Elvis Presley Fan Club, connected to Graceland for over 60 years, has even published evidence confirming thousands of complaints about Elvis Evolution being mis-sold.
In short: false advertising, refusal to refund, and a completely different product to what was sold.
I cannot recommend this event to anyone. Fans deserve transparency and honesty, not being misled into paying premium prices for something that was never delivered.
I’ve seen better performances from a 7 year olds school play.
