As the 20th anniversary of Freddieâs death looms â he died on November 24, 1991 â his friends have been celebrating what would have been his 65th birthday this week with an AIDS charity dinner for the Mercury Phoenix Trust at Londonâs Savoy Hotel, marking the start of a fund-raising year.
Freddie Mercury was born on the Tanzanian island of Zanzibar. His parents, Bomi and Jer Bulsara, sent him off to a private school in India, from 1955 til 1963. In 1964 Freddie and his family flew to England. Freddie was very delighted to come to England. In 1966 he started his education at the Ealing College of Art, where he graduated in 1969.
