Michael Jackson O2 Arena Refund Details Announced

Fans are to be given the opportunity to keep their tickets to Michael Jackson's comeback gigs in London, promoters have revealed.

AEG Live said people can either request a full refund or keep their tickets for prosperity, as long as they give up their right to obtain their money back.

The £75 or £50 tickets, which feature a series of lenticular images, are expected to increase in value over time following Jackson's death last week.

800,000 people bought tickets to the gigs at London's O2 Arena, which were due to begin on July 13.

AEG Live said a number of fans had contacted official ticket agencies expressing a desire to keep their tickets as a memento.

“The world lost a kind soul who just happened to be the greatest entertainer the world has ever known,” promoter Randy Phillips said.

"Since he loved his fans in life, it is incumbent upon us to treat them with the same reverence and respect after his death."

AEG Live had already printed eight different versions of the tickets, but said they would not print any more.

Fans will be able to log their interest for either a full refund or the chance to receive their tickets from tomorrow (July 1) here.
