After a false start, tickets for Kanye West's free Sunday Service concert Friday at the Aretha Franklin Amphitheatre in Detroit are set to be made available at noon via Ticketmaster

In this Sept. 7, 2018, file photo, Kanye West attends the Ralph Lauren 50th Anniversary Event held at Bethesda Terrace in Central Park during New York Fashion Week in New York.

The tickets were set to be made available to the public at 10 a.m. Thursday but were delayed as Kanye's team worked out the details. Aretha Franklin Amphitheatre spokesperson Chandra Lewis said the delay was likely an effort to thwart tickets ending up for sale on the secondary market. 

Details of Friday's event were not finalized until late Wednesday. Earlier this week, a call went out to local singers to audition to join the choir at the event, part of a series of gospel concerts the superstar rapper has staged this year, which find him and a large choir presenting gospel reinterpretations of Kanye West material and other pop hits. Recent Sunday Services have been held in Chicago, Atlanta and Cody, Wyoming.

"Jesus is King," West's latest album, was set to be released on Friday, but is reportedly being delayed. 

Gates for Friday's concert are set to open at 11 a.m. There is a two ticket limit for fans.
