A sizeable number of Michael Jackson's 750 million copies of records and CDs sold in the four decades of his career have surely been bought by Polish music lovers. Enough to mention that his first and only concert appearance in Warsaw in September 1996  - as part of the Heal The World tour - gathered an audience of some 120 thousand at the capital's Bemowo airfield. Millions more have been re-living this memorable performance and galactic style show till today. 

 

But Poland remembers the King of Pop not only for his unforgettable Warsaw concert years ago. 'Jacko' also planned a Family Theme Park here.
