Whitney Houston Funeral Date & Location Revealed

A funeral for Whitney Houston will be held on Friday in New Jersey, according to NBC New York.

Houston’s funeral will be held at the Prudential Center – an 18,000 seat arena in Newark, the town the late superstar was born in, according to the station.

A wake is expected to be held on Thursday, NBC NY reported.

Houston’s body is currently being transported to New Jersey, where upon arrival will be given a police escort to Whigham Funeral Home on Monday night.

As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, at a press conference in Los Angeles on Monday, L.A. County Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter told reporters that it is still too early to determine a cause of death.

“It’s too early to say,” Winter said when asked whether they’d ruled out drowning in the Houston case. “We don’t know. The autopsy was done yesterday and there’s still testing that is ongoing.”

Winter said the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office was doing routine toxicology tests, the results of which will influence the determination of Houston’s exact cause of death.

Houston was pronounced dead shortly before 4 PM on Saturday in Los Angeles. She was 48.
