George Michael fans can visit his grave for the first time… if they can find it.

The cemetery where he is buried is finally welcoming visitors, but his plot will remain unmarked.

Previously, only those on guided tours could access the west section of Highgate Cemetery in north London.

Sight-seeing tours did not include the pop legend’s grave.

The Highgate Cemetery West was finally reopened yesterday for unaccompanied visitors who have booked their entry online.

Wham! star George was buried there following his death on Christmas Day 2016 at the age of just 53.

He was found at his home in Goring-on-Thames in South Oxford-shire. The singer’s death was attributed to natural causes.

A spokesman for the cemetery said: “As an experiment we are offering visitors the chance to experience Highgate Cemetery West on their own without a guide.”

Fans may have a hard job finding the Faith singer’s grave as it does not have a headstone.

George’s grave is next to that of his mum Lesley, which is marked by a white cross.

The singer’s sister Melanie Panayiotou, who died aged 59 three years to the day after her brother, is also understood to buried in the cemetery.
