Michael Jackson Funeral Tickets

Tickets to Michael Jackson’s Funeral/ Memorial service are set to be offered shortly according to multiple reports.
The Michael Jackson Memorial Service is scheduled at the Staples Center in Los Angeles Tuesday, with possibly two sessions at 10am and 12 noon each.
What we don’t know though at this stage is the cost, if any for the tickets. One unconfirmed report claims tickets will go on sale at $25 each, while other reports suggest that tickets will be offered for free. AP quotes a spokesman at the Center saying that they will be offered for free, but distribution of the tickets hasn’t been finalized. The problem there is that ticket systems are set up to involve a transaction, so offering them for nothing may cause issues.
Update: tickets available from the Staples Center.

Finally the body of Michael Jackson can rest now. The reason of his death is still unclear to some since there are a lot of possibilities that needs to be investigated. We all hope that Michael will rest in peace.
Jul 3, 2009
Im sure with all the rubbish which is going around about poor Michaels final journey, that this is yet another load of rubbish but selling tickets!!!!
I have never heard of anything quite so disturbing or disgusting in my life.
Its a funeral not a money making opportunity, the poor man is gone and people want to be able to mourn him and celebrate his life not pay to be there almost as if its some final concert.

Learned that 10,000 Free tickets will be issues for the Memorial Concert, Is it true?
Jul 3, 2009
yea, 11,000. For anyone who is going…put a peace sign in the air for me, for our beloved Michael.
May he find the rest we all await, in peace.

Michael Jackson will be forever missed, his father is still crazy and I just want to Thank him for the unconditional level of entertainment he allowed the world to see.
Michael I love and miss you!

what i do not understand is why the fans have to buy tickets from Michael Jackson's Funeral. The family should appreciate all the fans he had, without them he would have not been so popalar. I don't think Elivis Presley who was also a Legend had fans to purchase tickets. Is this a way of collecting money for his debts? Could somebody answer this question?

I think that they should just do it at Neverland Ranch. It sounds like the crowd is growing and they are starting to lose control of some of the police force. Bloggers are reporting looting on the grounds:

I think we can all be a part of Michael Jackson's funeral by donating a small fee to cover the costs the city will inherit from this memorial event. In doing so we will not only take part in this event, but we will be giving back to Michael Jackson a small amount of the love that he gave to all of us, all over the world. If the world wants to take part in this donation, I think they should also be allowed to give. Michael was a world-wide icon and loved all over the world.

I pray that I am selected. Michael Jackson and his music has meant alot to me my entire life. It would be an honor to be at his Memorial service and pay my respects. He was pure magic, pure love and pure talent. As a child of the 70's and teen of the 80's, his music was the background music of my life.
Much love and respect to the Jackson family, Debbie

Haha you have to see it. It contains MJ's ghost!

We will all miss Michael Jackson a lot. He was very talented. We respect him a lot. This whole thing with funeral tickets is IMMORAL. Elvis Presley, John Lennon, Barry White and nobody else had their fans requiring a ticket to go to their funeral so why does the people who is in charge of Michael’s funeral? A funeral is a time to mourn, pay your respects and celebrate their life, not just another show to see. What a wierd moment we’ll see in the history books to come. What message are we sending to our kids? A funeral is no longer a time to mourn, pay your respects and celebrate the decease’s life, but a show. I may be an old fashioned 29 year old, but this funeral ticket thing is STUDID, IMMORAL, and shows DISRESPECT for Michael Jackson, his family, friends, and fans.

To the Jackson Family I am deeply sorry for your loss of your son and brother. I know what it is like to lose a loved one. I had known Michael's music ever since i was 7 years old. I had just fell in love with his music and he had inspired me to sing. So I thank him and his music. He will be trully missed all around the world. RIP MJ
Jul 4, 2009
I hope that the tickets for his funeral will be free because it isn't normal to sell tickets for Michael's funeral.
