Michael Jackson's Funeral To Be Held At The Staples Center Next Tuesday
Posted on Wed Jul 1, 2009 10:17 PM PDT
Michael Jackson's funeral will be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles at 10am on Tuesday, July 7, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
AEG Live, which owns the Staples Center and the adjacent Nokia Theatre, will use both facilities and the surrounding plaza for the memorial service. Inside sources reveal that AEG will put gigantic screens outside the location for the thousands of fans who will not get inside. In order to hold the service at the facility, the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus had to be persuaded to postpone moving into the 20,000-seat venue by several hours.
Ironically enough, the Staples Center is where Jackson spent his final night, rehearsing for his upcoming London concerts, right up until midnight on Wednesday June 24.
There's no word yet on how the ticketing will be handled, but you can bet it's going to be chaotic!
Will you attend? And how much would you pay for this?
