A memorial service for late musician, Johnny Clegg is to be held on Friday, July 26, at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg.

Admission to the service is free, but the public is being urged to reserve their seats by collecting their tickets at any Computicket outlet from Sunday (July 21, 2019).

There will also be an unreserved standing area at the venue.

Clegg died in his Johannesburg home on Tuesday at the age of 66 after succumbing to pancreatic cancer.

He was laid to rest in a private ceremony on Wednesday.

British-born Clegg is perhaps best known for his 1988 hit, Great Heart.

His solo tracks, along with his bands, Juluka and Savuka were also featured in movies like Rain Man, Invictus and George of the Jungle.
