At the time of his death, singer Michael Jackson was rehearsing for a 50-date run at the O2 Arena, in London.
The shows, which were due to start on 13 July, were billed as his big comeback and tickets sold out rapidly.
Fans who bought directly from official ticket sellers should now get a full refund, although the picture is less certain for those who bought from a third party.
If no terms and conditions applied then these buyers have no legal rights. Here's the current state of play:
AEG LIVE - concert organiser
"On behalf of the entire AEG organisation we extend our deepest condolences to Michael Jackson's family and friends during this tragic time."
Full ticket refund information and procedures will be released early next week for all Michael Jackson This Is It shows. Fans are advised to hold onto their ticket vouchers/proof of purchase.
EBAY
