LOS OLIVOS, CA—It was a prediction that couldn’t fail—Michael Jackson’s fans are rushing to his anticipated burial site near Neverland Ranch, (bottom left photo) the entertainer’s private version of Disneyland.

The burial date and time has not been officially announced but that is not stopping a horde of Jackson fans from descending on the Neverland area this weekend, according to the entertainment network TMZ.

Jackson, (top right photo) 50, died June 25 at his home in Holmby Hills, CA.

TMZ reporters claim nearby Neverland area hotels in CA are all booked and sold out for the weekend.

TMZ reporters cite the Fess Parker Wine Country Inn in Los Olivos as their source of the hotel bookings. The inn is located less than a mile from Neverland Ranch.

"They tell us that once news hit Jackson's body might be coming to Neverland, they sold out in just 20 minutes,” TMZ is reporting. “They are booked up solid from Thursday until Saturday."

The TMZ report states “people who are planning to drive to the Los Olivos area, are advised there aren't many places for lodging. The area hotels are mostly, if not all, sold out.”

The network’s reporters advise Jackson fans “to make a possible reservation before you drive to Los Olivos area.”

TMZ adds, “It is expected that many Americans, who were planning to take a short summer vacation for the July 4 holiday, may change their directions and instead drive to Los Olivos, towards Neverland.”
