After it was announced in May that the late Whitney Houston gets the same hologram treatment as Buddy Holly and Ray Orbison, it was now revealed that the tour launches in the UK next year.

Seth Faber, the marketing boss of Primary Wave confirmed to Music Week, that the Whitney Houston hologram tour starts in the UK next year. "It will be an incredible show", he promises.

"So much effort has gone into making the show as authentic as possible. It's going to be a phenomenal experience."

However, no specific dates for the Whitney Houston hologram tour have been announced as of yet.

The show will be staged by Base Entertainment, who are famous for their hologram tours of late music acts. Earlier this year, their Amy Winehouse hologram tour was postponed due to "unique challenges and sensitivities".

Whitney Houston was found dead in The Beverly Hilton hotel on February 11, 2012. It was confirmed that the singer drowned in the bathtub, with heart disease and cocaine use as contributing factors.
