ABOUT THE SHOW
"MANIA - THE ABBA TRIBUTE" has continued to tour the globe, enjoying great success, with ticket sales for most venues selling out long before the show hit town.
The show has toured internationally in regions as far afield as Venezuela, North America, Tahiti, Mexico, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Holland, Denmark, Sweden, Luxembourg, and many more, making this the world’s most successful touring ABBA show.
It has now been decades since ABBA last toured and, as you can imagine, in 1979 requests for tickets far outstripped availability with two Royal Albert Hall performances receiving 2 million requests for tickets, with only 5000 available.
In short, it was the hottest ticket in town.
Even today ABBA continues to grip the nation with countless tributes on television, radio and of course with the hugely popular stage hit "Mamma Mia," which became a feature film and resulted in a hit sequel, so there are no signs that this popularity is slowing down!
"MANIA - THE ABBA TRIBUTE" takes you back in time by recreating one of the world’s finest pop groups in a live stage performance.
This highly polished and professional production was created in 1999 and played its first shows in 2000.
In 2003, the show was presented with a prestigious Radio Regenbogen Award for the best musical of 2002.
In the same year, "MANIA - THE ABBA TRIBUTE" toured extensively throughout Europe selling out theatres wherever they performed.
In 2002, "MANIA - THE ABBA TRIBUTE" was invited to perform at London’s West End, and played for 18 weeks at the Strand Theatre.
In November 2002, the show made its German debut at the Deutsches Theatre Munich where it sold every seat in the house for 21 performances!
The highlight of 2004 was playing a one off television special.
Viewed by over 11 million people and broadcast throughout Europe, the show celebrated thirty years since ABBA came to prominence with Waterloo (Eurovision 1974).
Fellow performers included original members of the ABBA band, stars from the musical Mamma Mia, and even the iconic Bjorn Ulveaus made an appearance.
We look forward to welcoming you back this year and will ensure that once again you’ll be “having the time of your life."
