The ticket allotment for the presale has been sold. Michael Jackson has added five more concerts to his historic return to the stage at London’s O2 Arena, making this a half-century of shows. Tickets are available across all 50 shows for the general sale at 7am, Friday 13th March 2009.

The biggest audience ever to see an artist in one city.
The most amount of people to attend a series of arena shows.
The fastest ticket sales in history.
By the end of the 50 concerts, 1 million fans will have witnessed one of the greatest musical events in history. The figures speak for themselves – 360,000 tickets sold in 18 hours during the pre sale so far, that is 20,000 tickets per hour, 33 tickets per minute!

Michael is said to be ‘thrilled’ by the response and wanted as many fans to share the experience with him as possible. This will be the last chance to see the King of Pop in London, this really is it!

Five new shows have been added to Michael Jackson’s London run, bringing the total to 50, according to Randy Phillips, CEO of AEG Live, promoter of the shows.

“We stopped it at 45 in the pre-sale to save shows for the public on sale, which is tomorrow,” Phillips says. Jackson could do 100 shows at the O2 if he wanted, Phillips says, but he has other goals, including film and recording. “He can’t live his life in London, he has a lot of things on his agenda.”

Phillips says allotments from each night of the first 45 shows also will be available to the general public, meaning those who did not pre-register for tickets. More than 90% of the tickets have been purchased from the U.K., but “the rest is France, Germany, Poland, everywhere in the world. People bought tickets from Botswana,” Phillips says.

The intensity of demand has been a “shot of adrenaline” for Jackson, Phillips says. “He feels great. He feels reborn,” Phillips adds. “He’s been gone for 12 years, so there was trepidation there.”
