George Michael tribute event adds second night due to phenomenal demand

Covent Garden area nightclub Tropicana Beach Club recently shared plans to hold a celebration of the late George Michael's music on Friday, January 6, but so many people expressed an interest that a second night has now been added. 

The club's Anthony Knight told London's Standard newspaper that around 6000 people expressed an interest in attending the event so they have now put on a second night to meet demand. He told the newspaper:

“The response has been incredible. Originally it was just meant to be a small event on Thursday. We then had to move it to the Friday and within 24 hours we had received over 6000 enquiries with fans from as far as Norway, Ireland, Germany and even Canada flying in especially.

Knight added: “We are now encouraging people to come on Saturday as we won’t be able to accommodate everyone on Friday. It’s going to be a marathon of a party!”
