According to the Associated Press, a huge Michael Jackson tribute concert will take place in Vienna, Austria. Jackson’s family is working with promoter World Awards Media to get a high-profile lineup of international stars to pay homage to the King of Pop. The show will take place at the sprawling grounds of the famed Schoenbrunn Palace, where an outdoor stage shaped like a crown will be built. Jackson’s brother Jermaine said recently that Vienna was a special place for Michael, who “loved castles.” Organizers said they’ll announce the date soon, but tickets will go on sale August 20th, according to the World Awards Media Web site. Schoenbrunn Palace is one of Vienna’s biggest tourist attractions and has enough standing room to accommodate about 85-thousand people.
