ABBA Mania

About ABBA Mania

Direct from London’s West End, ABBA MANIA is accepted as the world’s number one ABBA tribute show.

Featuring a special concert presentation celebrating the music of ABBA in a respectful and enjoyable way, this production revives memories of when ABBA ruled the airwaves.

It is just over 40 years since ABBA won the Eurovision Song Contest and they have filled our lives with music ever since. Now it’s your chance to thank them for the music!

ABBA MANIA brings fans old and new a memorable night not to be missed. If you’re looking for an excuse to party, reminisce or simply be entertained, then ABBA MANIA is the show for you!

Dig out those platforms, dust down those flares, and join in with such classic hits as ‘Mamma Mia’, ‘Voulez Vous’, ‘Dancing Queen’, ‘Winner Takes It All’, ‘Super Trouper’ and many, many more.
