Don’t attempt to go to AKA’s memorial if you do not have a ticket

Tickets to AKA's memorial service have been sold out and his family has urged people not to pay for tickets sold by grifters.


The memorial for rapper AKA (Kiernan Jarryd Forbes) is fast approaching and it seems as though things are escalating as fans scramble for access to the memorial. 

AKA’s memorial service was announced by his family on Tuesday, and tickets were made available for free via WebTickets, to ensure that capacity constraints for the venue were adhered to. 

The tickets ‘sold out’ within hours and the Forbes family then had to issue a statement not only urging people not to show up if they did not have a ticket but to not pay people for tickets. 

“Megacy, thank you for your overwhelming response to the Supa Mega’s celebration of life. All tickets have been fully subscribed and no more tickets will be allocated or issued.

“Please be reminded that anyone who does not have a ticket can still be a part of this experience by joining via live stream,” read a statement shared on AKA’s social media accounts.
