About

Ben is not just a tribute artist; he is the real deal, being regarded as the closest living performer to the legendary Elvis Presley.  With global success in over 20 countries, Ben Portsmouth brings energy, passion and authenticity.

Making history in 2012, Ben broke records becoming the first European to be crowned by Elvis Presley Enterprises as the ‘Worldwide Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist’ in Memphis, which swiftly followed with an invite to headline a special Elvis week on the Late Show with David Letterman. 

‘This is Elvis’ offers an immersive journey through Presley's most iconic eras with greatest hits from his early rockabilly roots to the dazzling Vegas years.  Whether you’re a lifelong Elvis fan or just discovering his music, this is a show for all generations! Ben and the Taking Care of Elvis Band brings you a dynamic and unforgettable experience that enthusiasts all over the world claim, 'feels like a live concert with the King himself'.

    by Pam on 21/09/2025Rating: 5 out of 5

    What a fabulous evening and experience. I would love everyone to enjoy as much as myself and my companions had. The only regret was it ended too soon. We could have watched the show again and still come back for more.

    This is our 4th time seeing Ben. We go every year. It's such a fun night out. Ben is a fantastic Elvis impersonator with a great sense of humour. We always have a great night out. If you are an Elvis fan then this is one show you don't want to miss.
