Michael Jackson's remains will be buried in Los Angeles on what would have been his 51st birthday, the late singer's family have confirmed.
He will be laid to rest at the Forest-Lawn memorial park in Glendale on 29 August in a private ceremony for close friends and family.
A spokesman for the Jacksons said they wished to convey their gratitude for the support offered by fans, the BBC reported.
