LondonTown.com offer discounted hotel deals as the acclaimed circus performance company brings Michael Jackson’s songs to dramatic life in London’s 02 Arena

-- /EPR NETWORK/ -- Three years after his death, The Immortal World Tour looks set to bring a visual, musical and dance spectacular to audiences across the globe in celebration of the life and message of Michael Jackson and his work.

‘Immortal', directed by multiple Emmy award-winning Jamie King, will feature circus artists from the famed Cirque du Soleil group, and is set to travel across America and Europe, two of the ‘King of Pop's' strongest fanbases.

The show, intended as both an introduction to Jackson's work for the uninitiated, and a celebration of his achievements for lifelong fans and supporters, will be a musical to remember, which aims to perform Jackson's songs and also create visual and dramatic accompaniment inspired by the messages of love, peace and unity within them.

The show will travel to London's O2 arena for 5 nights, from 12 th October to 16 th October 2012. Tickets are priced between £40 and £100, and the tour also gives newcomers to the O2 the opportunity to enjoy one of London's biggest and newest major music venues.

The O2, since its conversion within the former Millennium Dome, has played host to some of the biggest acts in chart music, from The Rolling Stones to Rihanna and Britney Spears.

Located on the Jubilee line, with North Greenwich tube station 2 minutes walk away, travel is relatively easy. However, for those making a weekend of it, LondonTown.com recommends taking advantage of its latest easy-to-use widget, HotelMap.

The program allows customers to locate hotels offers close to the venue, as well as find other suitable hotels in London to stay in for longer breaks and holidays.

For example, a deluxe hotel experience can be yours for £159, just over the river on the other side of the Blackwall Tunnel, at the Radisson Blu Edwardian - New Providence Wharf. This gives you a double room in this 4* property.

In Canary Wharf, to the west of the 02 is the Hilton Canary Wharf Hotel – LondonTown.com can offer deals at this 4* hotel for £134 a night for a double.
