Priscilla Presley arrives in Mallorca for glittering star-studded celebrity gala

Priscilla Presley has arrived on the island ahead of one of the most exclusive social events of the summer, adding another international celebrity name to Mallorca’s ever-growing reputation as a magnet for the rich and famous. The 81-year-old actress and businesswoman landed at Palma Airport this week, where she was welcomed by luxury real estate entrepreneur Marcel Remus before the annual Remus Lifestyle Night.

A star-studded evening awaits

Presley is expected to be among the headline guests at the 14th Remus Lifestyle Night, which takes place at the Hilton Mallorca Galatzó. The annual event has become one of the island’s most glamorous fixtures, attracting celebrities, entrepreneurs and high-profile figures from across Europe and beyond.

This year’s guest list is also expected to include Dutch television presenter and influencer Sylvie Meis, Spanish actress Mónica Cruz and British-American actress Mischa Barton, making it another glittering showcase of international talent on the island.

Mallorca has become increasingly popular with celebrities looking for both privacy and luxury, with stars regularly choosing the island for holidays, yacht trips and exclusive events throughout the summer.

Life beyond Elvis

Although forever linked with Elvis Presley, Priscilla has built a successful career in her own right.

She first met the future music icon in Germany in 1959 while he was serving in the US Army. The couple married in Las Vegas in 1967 and welcomed daughter Lisa Marie Presley the following year before divorcing in 1973. Despite their separation, Priscilla remained closely associated with Elvis’s legacy throughout her life.

Following Elvis’s death in 1977, she played a pivotal role in preserving his legacy by helping transform Graceland into one of America’s most visited tourist attractions through Elvis Presley Enterprises. The move proved crucial in safeguarding both the estate and the singer’s cultural legacy.

Away from business, Priscilla also enjoyed a successful acting career, becoming familiar to television audiences through the long-running drama Dallas before winning a new generation of fans with her comedic performances in The Naked Gun film series.

Mallorca’s celebrity appeal

Her visit comes just three years after renewed global interest in her life following Sofia Coppola’s acclaimed 2023 film Priscilla, which retold her relationship with Elvis from her own perspective.

Now, her arrival in Mallorca adds another chapter to the island’s long-running love affair with international celebrities. From Hollywood actors and sporting legends to music icons and royalty, Mallorca continues to attract world-famous names drawn by its luxury hotels, spectacular coastline and discreet atmosphere.

For organisers of Remus Lifestyle Night, Priscilla Presley’s appearance is likely to be one of the biggest talking points of this year’s event, reinforcing Mallorca’s status as one of Europe’s premier destinations for high-profile summer gatherings.
