The Michael Jackson History Show is a tribute concert with an amazing Michael Jackson impersonator and band. We’ve seen it and were so impressed!
The band tours the world. In 2024 it had stops in Chilliwack and West Vancouver, as well as a few performances in communities on Vancouver Island. Before coming to British Columbia, it has been to South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. Hopefully it’ll be back next year! Fingers crossed that it will be!

Michael Jackson History Show Tour in 2024
The Michael Jackson History Show is a touring tribute band that performs across the globe. Presented by Showtime Australia, the concerts are an excellent tribute to the late King of Pop. If you’re a fan of Michael Jackson, or at least know some of his hit songs, you should definitely go to a show!
The concerts include a lot more than just singing. The Michael Jackson History Show is a big stage production. It comes complete with a live band, backup dancers and costumes that look exactly like what the King of Pop wore. There are also neat stage lighting effects. The star of the show is Michael Jackson impersonator Garth Field from South Africa. He’s a very talented individual with great singing and dancing capabilities. He sounded just like the real thing, and wow could he ever do the moves!
Attending the Michael Jackson History Show feels like a trip back in time. The concerts include an impressive lineup of music from all stages of Michael Jackson’s career. Expect to see and hear renditions of ABC, Bad, Beat It, Human Nature and Smooth Criminal.
