It is said that MJ The Musical will be extended to January 2029 on Broadway. However, no official statement from the Musical or Estate has landed. You can buy tickets until January 2025 on the official website.

It is a good point to recap some numbers. As to date the show on Broadway had 39 preview shows, 933 performances with a total of tickets sold of 1,288,478 and a gross revenue as to date of $189,980,073 since it opened its doors in 2021.

The London West End show which started last March has already been extended to December 2024.

This is just part of the big picture as the North American Tour started in August 2023 and due to end in September this year. Once ended, we should be able to have the numbers of attendees and revenue.

And with the German version of the show in Hamburg starting this December and the Australian version in Sydney starting in February 2025, MJ The Musical will bring a consequent amount of revenue to the Estate. In May 2023, the musical already recouped its investment of $22.5 million.

There is also a rumour that the show will land in Paris, France but nothing has been confirmed yet.

That's absolutely absurd. It is definitely not true. They never book a venue that far in advance. Things get cancelled as soon as they don't make enough profit.

Nobody knows how long it will run. Not even the production company. It will only survive into 2029 if it's successful in 2028. It will only survive into 2028 if it's successful in 2027. It will only survive into 2027 if it's successful in 2026, etc.
