The European Jackson Event 2014 - Teaser II by Fabian van Dongen
The European Michael Jackson Event - Reusel, Netherlands - April 20th, 2014
The European Jackson Event has grown from a small party for a select group of people to a true phenomenon. EJE once started in a small school auditorium in Eindhoven. The perfect combination of magic performances, great dance music and the chance to buy rare pieces of merchandise kept on pulling in more and more people over the years. The crowd got very diverse; young people, older people, real fans and ‘just admirers'... all as diverse as today's society.
About
Michael showed us that by starting with the man or woman in the mirror, we can make that change. As Jackson Event we want to keep making that change. We want to give to Michael the greatest gift one could ever give him: carrying on his Legacy.
Company Overview
"...We had him, beautiful, delighting our eyes. His hat, aslant over his brow, and took a pose on his toes for all of us. And we laughed and stomped our feet for him. We were enchanted with his passion because he held nothing. He gave us all he had been given."
Those were the words of Dr. Maya Angelou read by Queen Latifah during the July 7th Memorial Service at Staples Centre, Los Angeles. Dr. Angelou was able to capture and reproduce the feelings we all share in common: Michael DID give us all he had been given, whether it was through his amazing talent as an entertainer, writer, songwriter, actor, performer, dancer... Or through his endless gift of love, compassion, time, money and heart for thousands of charities around the world.
We decided to come together and do what we do best, determined to bring you, his fans, incredible entertainment and determined to keep Michael Jackson alive in everyone's hearts. All that, in support and honor of those who are less fortunate and in need for our care.
We hope you join us, wherever we go.
In loving memory of Michael Jackson.
Rest in Peace.

Our Michael Jackson Event History
EJE2009
Each event passing, the waiting lines of people eager to enter this phenomenon got longer and longer. Several of our events were such a success, that the demand for tickets was greater than the actual available number. For this reason, EJE kept on growing into bigger, better and more awesome venues. We outgrew the auditorium... moved to Dynamo... organized events at the MJ statue in Best.. dance parties in Odeon.. and have now settled in multi-room venue ‘de Kei' in Reusel. This location gives us the possibility to provide you with an even bigger and better show than the ones in our previous events!
EJE2005
If we do a quick recap of European Jackson Events over the years, we can proudly say that, in the past, we were able to offer you:
Performances by the best international Michael Jackson impersonators
Chances to win exclusive items signed by Michael himself
Appearances by members of the Jackson family
Exclusive video messages to EJE by Michael Jackson
The very top in international DJ-s playing nothing but Jackson hits
EJE2002
The force behind EJE is a small crew that has been together for over 13 years. We are all Michael Jackson fans to the core and through EJE we are looking to spread Michael's love to the world. Also, EJE is and has always been a non-profit organization. All profit made from events is donated to the Ronald McDonals children's foundation. (You can read more about that on our charity page!)
