Warner Home Video has announced the Blu-ray release of Elvis on Tour, the Golden Globe-winning documentary that followed Elvis Presley on a 15-city tour of the United States in 1972, for August 3. Video has been remastered in high definition with 2.40:1 letterboxed image, as seen in the theatrical release. Audio will be 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio.

Also on August 3, WHV will release a three-film Elvis Blu-ray Collection will include Elvis on Tour, Jailhouse Rock and Viva Las Vegas.
The documentary features 25 musical numbers and backstage rehearsals.

"This is one of the most anticipated Elvis releases ever," said Kevin Kern, spokesman for Elvis Presley Enterprises, the licensing arm of The King's trust, to Home Media Magazine. "His fans have been waiting for this for a very long time, and they're anxious to see it."
