MJ the Musical set to moon walk out of London in February 2026.
The show, which won the Olivier Award for Best Choreography as well as being nominated for the prestigious Best New Musical, will follow its two-year London run by embarking on a major UK Tour in 2027, bringing the electrifying production to audiences across the country.
At the same time, the musical also announces today the first ever international Asian tour of the global sensation, set to launch in October 2026 and travelling to major cities around the world for an initial two-year period. Both UK and International Asian Tour details will be revealed in the coming months.
The UK and International Asian Tour announcements mark further milestones in the continued global success of MJ, which has been experienced by more than 5 million people through its acclaimed productions on Broadway, in London’s West End, Hamburg, Sydney, the U.S. National Tour, and, later this year, Melbourne.
Featuring over 25 of Michael Jackson’s most iconic hits, the production has been praised for its innovative storytelling, high-octane performances and celebration of one of the most influential entertainers of all time.
