Iconic Elvis Guitar Car takes center stage at Dezerland Park on the King’s Birthday

ORLANDO, Fla. — Dezerland Park Orlando is striking a powerful chord as the Orlando Auto Museum hosts a special reveal celebration for one of the most iconic custom cars ever created — Elvis Presley’s legendary Guitar Car — debuting on January 8, Elvis’ birthday.

Originally designed by famed custom car creator Jay Ohrberg as a rolling tribute to the King of Rock & Roll, the guitar-shaped Cadillac is instantly recognizable and deeply tied to Elvis’ larger-than-life legacy. Following a full restoration, the iconic vehicle will now be unveiled in its completed form, allowing fans to experience the car as it was meant to be seen; bold, unforgettable, and fit for the King himself.

The reveal celebration marks the official debut of the fully restored Elvis Guitar Car, which will become a must-see centerpiece within the Orlando Auto Museum — recently ranked the #2 auto museum in the U.S. by Travel + Leisure — alongside a world-class collection of more than 2,500 rare and iconic vehicles.

To honor Elvis’ birthday, the Orlando Auto Museum will offer special Elvis birthday ticket pricing on January 8 and January 9. Guests can purchase online-only tickets for $19.35, a nod to the year Elvis Presley was born.

The celebration continues into the weekend with Rock & Roll Weekend, taking place January 10–11, featuring Elvis-inspired fun throughout Dezerland Park. Guests can check out the restored Elvis Guitar Car, enjoy live entertainment, indulge in limited-time food offerings, and soak in the unforgettable spirit of the King.

January 10 & 11 only: Guests who arrive dressed as Elvis will receive one FREE ticket to the Orlando Auto Museum, plus the opportunity to purchase up to three additional tickets for just $19.35 each.

It’s a celebration fit for the King — packed with iconic style, music, flavor, and all-ages fun.
