ABBA Voyage

ABBA Voyage is running at the ABBA Arena in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, East London, and it's still going strong well into 2027. If you're looking for a date, booking is open up until 28 June 2027, so there's plenty of room to fit it in when it suits you.

The show is a bit of a talking point because of how it's put together. Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson and Anni-Frid Lyngstad appear as digital avatars — the 'ABBAtars' — as they looked at their peak, rather than performing in the flesh. They're backed by a live ten-piece of today's finest musicians, so the sound is played live on the night. The whole thing was planned by the four of them together, their way of putting on the concert they always wanted without having to be there physically, which blurs the line between the real and the digital.

Behind the scenes, it's directed by Baillie Walsh and produced by Svana Gisla and Ludvig Andersson for Goldonder AB. It blends motion capture with lighting and some of the most beloved songs the group ever wrote. The show runs for around 100 minutes with no interval, and there are seven performances a week, including matinees on the weekend. It's been seen by over 4 million people since it opened in May 2022, and a closed-circuit camera system keeps the content secret from future audiences, so you'll see it for the first time no matter when you go.

Practical details: the venue is the ABBA Arena, 1 Pudding Mill Lane, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London E15 2RU. Dance floor tickets for ages 16-25 are £35, and family tickets are half-price for children until the end of December.
