From the hits of ABBA Gold, the ever-loved Mamma Mia show and movies and now the mind-blowing ABBA Voyage concert in London, Sweden’s finest export continues to unite multiple generations through their unbeatable back catalogue of music.
Just down the road from where the famous 1974 Eurovision took place is the town of Lewes in East Sussex. In 2021, the Lewes-based band Jukebox 1264 debuted their first concert performing Carole King’s masterpiece Tapestry in full. Three years later, the band are hitting the road to celebrate the music of Benny, Bjorn, Frida and Agnetha in a non-stop rollercoaster of hits and classic album tracks from across ABBA’s discography.
Expect to hear everything from “Waterloo” to “SOS”, “The Winner Takes it All” to “Does Your Mother Know” brought to life by a nine-piece band!
So put on your platform shoes and sparkliest attire and dance, jive, and have the time of your life as we thank ABBA for the music!
