Brian Ostering and his band present The Elvis Spectacular at the Middletown Arts Center

Published by New Jersey Stage

originally published: 11/02/2026

(MIDDLETOWN, NJ) -- Brian Ostering and his band present The Elvis Spectacular at the Middletown Arts Center on Saturday, November 28, 2026. Showtime is 7:00pm.

Experience the unforgettable sound of Elvis Presley as Brian Ostering and his fabulous band bring the early hits to life! From “Jailhouse Rock” to “Hound Dog,” it’s a night full of energy, nostalgia, and rock ’n’ roll magic. The band will feature Joe Lisa on guitar, Vincent Livolsi on drums, and Alicia Van Sant & Tiffany Ostering-Dibble on backing vocals.

This show holds a deep personal meaning for Brian. His father, a musician and devoted Elvis fan, performed Elvis’s music in his own bands. He passed that passion on to Brian, who is performing and producing this show in honor of the memory of his father, and to celebrate the music that meant so much to them both.

Tickets are $25 and available for purchase online. The Middletown Arts Center is located at 36 Church Street in Middletown, New Jersey.

Brian Ostering is best known for his band, The Wag.
