Abbatars! Mamma Mia!

Blending cutting-edge technology, spectacular lighting, and some of the most beloved songs ever written, ABBA takes to the stage in a whole new way.

SCENE SET

ABBA returns after 40 years with new music and a unique concert experience featuring their de-aged 3D ABBAtars. The Swedish pop group behind massive hits such as “Dancing Queen,” “Take a Chance On Me,” and “Mamma Mia” (you know that every part of that song is a hook!) is returning to the stage as digital avatars—or ABBAtars—to promote Voyage, their first new album in 40 years.

The cutting-edge concert used digital technology to take ABBA fans on a captivating time-travel experience during which the members of ABBA-Benny Andersson, Agnetha Fältskog, Anni-Frid Lyngstad, and Björn Ulvaeus-will perform a variety of songs from their latest album alongside a 10-piece band.

These pop stars who defined the ‘70s (and who are now in their seventies) reassembled to record in a Stockholm studio.

Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus say they never thought they’d be back producing and releasing a new album.

“It’s strange to talk ABBA in present tense,” said Ulvaeus.

They took the first letters of their first names – Agnetha Fältskog, Benny

Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus, and AnniFrid Lyngstad – and called themselves by that now-famous acronym.

Andersson composes the melodies, Ulvaeus writes the lyrics. Ulvaeus says, “It’s hard to understand for someone from America or England that to come out of Sweden at that time was absolutely impossible.”
