Michael Jackson Nights: Fan Conventions in 2007 and 2009
The Michael Jackson Nights were events entirely dedicated to Michael Jackson fans, organized by Ben Jack’son and Avant-Scène. The first edition took place in October 2007, followed by a second on April 10, 2009, each attracting an audience of 700 passionate fans.
During these events, held across two floors, attendees enjoyed four hours of entertainment, filled with surprises and special attractions.
To ensure the smooth running of the event, a team of 40 people—including hosts, security staff, assistants, and waiters—worked behind the scenes.
