As you might have guessed from our announcement of the release of the book You’ve Got Michael, Dan Beck will join the lineup of special guests for KV NYC: HIStory Begins, taking place in New York City on October 25, 2025.
This marks Dan’s return to Kingvention since his highly praised first appearance in London back in 2016. As Senior Vice President of Marketing at Epic Records during Michael Jackson’s Dangerous and HIStory eras, Dan worked closely with Michael at a pivotal time in his career.
With the recent release of his new memoir, You’ve Got Michael, Dan will share personal stories and insights from his time working with the King of Pop. Fans will also have the exclusive opportunity to purchase the book on site and have it personally signed by the author.

At KV NYC, Dan will take part in a live on-stage interview with Pez Jax, offering attendees a rare behind-the-scenes perspective on Michael Jackson’s artistry, challenges, and legacy during one of the most important chapters of his career.
KV NYC: HIStory Begins will be held in front of a live audience in New York and simultaneously live streamed worldwide, ensuring fans everywhere can be part of this unique celebration of Michael Jackson.
More guest announcements and event details will be revealed soon from Kingvention.






Will the book be released in physical format or only as an e-book? I noticed that the pre-order only offers the e-book option.
