A Michael Jackson tribute concert will take place at the Valletta Waterfront in Malta on his birthday (August 29) at 8 pm.

An interesting line-up of Maltese artistes and bands will interpret favourite songs from Michael Jackson’s wide repertoire. Artists confirmed to perform include Ira Losco, Kristina Casolani, Melissa from Chasing Pandora, Sophie, Brendan from Eve Ransom, Niki Gravino, Matt from Red Electrick, Errol from Airport Impressions, Marvic Lewis from Indigo, Chris and Jeff from Cable 35, Nick and Sarah from No Snow No Alps, with backing by a professional choir and more surprises on the night.

Tickets cost €5 each and proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the following charities: Saint Lazarus Foundation, the MMDNA (Malta Memorial District Nurses Association), the Tiny Infants Parents Support Group and the Muscular Dystrophy Group.

A special book of condolence will also be present at the event for the public to sign. This book of condolence will then be sent to Michael Jackson’s family with special help from the US Embassy in Malta.

Xfm events manager Lee Nicholson said:

“The world was hurting when the news broke about Jackson’s death; we would like to pay tribute to a man who gave us so much and affected so many people with his music.”

The concert is coordinated by Xfm 100.2 in collaboration with the Valletta Waterfront. Updated details will be available at www.xfmmalta.com, www.vallettawaterfront.com and on Facebook.
