Tickets for Michael Jackson’s 50 London concerts sold out within hours of becoming available, organizers said Friday.
The shows are scheduled to kick off in July and stretch into February. The pop singer has said the series, titled This Is It, will be his last in the British capital.
After 360,000 advance tickets sold out earlier this week, roughly 500,000 tickets were made available Friday, organizers said.
Tickets were priced from $70 to $105 -- but some went for much more on Internet auction sites.
