The hit musical Mamma Mia! is performed at the Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre, a story of love, friendship and identity set on a Greek island.
Mamma Mia! is coming to the Bournemouth Pavilion Theatre for a week-long run from Tuesday 28 July to Sunday 2 August 2026. It's the musical built around the songs of ABBA, and it's a story of love, friendship and identity set on a Greek island. The plot follows Sophie, who's on a mission to find her father, and in the process brings her mother face-to-face with three men from her romantic past, all on the eve of Sophie's wedding. It's described as 'the funniest musical in the world'.

There are six performances over the week, so you've got a fair few options to choose from. The evening shows run Tuesday 28, Wednesday 29, Thursday 30 and Friday 31 July, all starting at 19:30. Saturday 1 August is a double, with a matinee at 14:30 and an evening show at 19:30, and then a final matinee on Sunday 2 August at 14:30. The show runs for about 2 hours and 35 minutes, with a 20-minute interval in the middle.
Tickets start at £23.50, and there are discounts for groups of 10 or more and for those of 20 or more. There are also reduced prices for under-16s and over-60s. It's a general, family-friendly show, and they describe it as being for 'whatever age you are', so it works as much for a night out with friends as it does for taking the kids along.
