ABBA The Concert on Tour
Considered "the Best ABBA since ABBA," ABBA The Concert by THE VISITORS hit the road for A TRIBUTE TO ABBA tour, playing 29 shows across the United States. Dubbed "The Ultimate Tribute Celebration" to one of the greatest pop performance groups, you'll hear all the ABBA classics including "Mamma Mia," "Dancing Queen," "S.O.S." and more. Though the touring show doesn't have a formal affiliation with the original ABBA group or Mamma Mia! film, audience members fawn over ABBA The Concert for displaying their range, energy and fashionable costume changes, all while sounding just like the real thing. With a robust and rhythmic percussion group, stellar and diverse vocals, the 12-piece band promises to deliver a great performance. The group has toured in more than 25 countries for nearly 30 years including Europe, Asia and the United States. Tickets are selling fast to see ABBA The Concert, so get yours today.
ABBA The Concert Live
In 1996, Martin Håkansson and Christian Fast created the ABBA tribute band called Waterloo in Stockholm, Sweden. Audiences and local journalists immediately came to an agreement: "This is the closest to ABBA you will ever get." Over the course of the next 10 years, Waterloo continued to add full-time members like Tom Bieme, Marcus Olsson, Jonas Lidholm, Charlotte Berg, Matilda Lindell, and more. By 2013 they agreed to go by a new name -- THE VISITORS -- and they hit the road to tour just a few months later. The group has made waves across audiences, doing conference performances for Fortune 500 companies, playing a part in a multi-group performance called The Tribute Show -- which pays homage to pop and rock greats like Elvis Presley, Queen and The Beatles -- and even performing for The Queen of Sweden. Fast forward to today and ABBA The Concert, in association with 21st Century Artist Inc., is a national success, recreating the magic of Mamma Mia! on a nightly basis across the United States.
We realy enjoyed this show. I have seen the movie several times. I have seen the play several times and I think this whos was right up there with them both. Loved it.
Our group really enjoyed the show! The band was very entertaining.
We purchased these tickets back in June of 2010 and as the date approached we waited for the time to get away and have a good time. We were not disappointed. Having front row seats I was a bit worried, speakers and all but the band was awesome. I wonderful show and a wonderful evening.
Took my 10 year old niece to this concert. She absolutely loved it - had a great time. If you've seen Mama Mia - and loved the music - this is a fantastic show to see!
Priceing was fair and the seating was good. I could see staff making ajustments for people that had issues with thier seats. The show was excellent. The accoustics were good and the group used the stage for all to see. Having not seen the original ABBA in person I can't imagine how much better the music could be. We enjoyed the show very much.
Average: The acoustics were not good for FL Theater.. Music was good and singers were good.
ABBA: THE CONCERT. Swedish heritage band not allowing the music introduced by the originals before my time to ever die. Hearing ABBA via sound device is nothing compared to live. My fear was that I would never experience that with ABBA ever. Much thanks to these group of individuals allowing me to have the opportunity. These guys did a great job. There were songs from the ABBA Movie that I never heard but did enjoyed hearing it. All in All: great show for all ages. I do mean all ages 4 to 65.
This was a great concert! Really enjoyed, they were awesome.
I enjoyed it because I love their music. No one can compare to their style, it's so original. At the concert, it felt like a time warp but in a good way! Great harmony, memorable tunes, the atmosphere was surreal. The music transcends you into a happy, swaying, wonderful mood. Everyone needs ABBA to put a smile in their life : )
I was lucky enough to be on a business trip in Jacksonville, FL during their visit. I hope they expand and tour the rest of the US. Amazing show, closest thing to the real ABBA, both site and sound!
Nothing better. Great show. I would go seven times a week. Totally the best professional musicians, singers, and all that. What a wonderfule experience. Thanks to all to present the wonderful concert. Ken, Judy, Dick, Nancy.
The show was fantastic!!! Wasn't sure what to expect and almost did not buy tickets but took the chance and glad I did. Can't stop bragging and have recommended that all my friends go when and if Abba the Concert returns.
I went to this show not really knowing what to expect. I never got a chance to see ABBA as they broke up before I was able to catch a live show. ABBA the concert does a great job of recreating the concert footage I have seen on video. The band was spot on musically and with the girls choreography. The girls went through four costume changes and as always looking beautiful. I hope they return to my hometown again soon. I would definitely like to see them again.
Fun songs. melodious voices. I wonder why they did a medley with shortened versions of more popular songs ("Like Knowing Me, Knowing You") and then played the whole version of a lot of less memorable songs in the second half. Spirited costumes.
My kids and I were really looking forward to this, but unfortunately it was not good at all. Lifeless performance. Bad wigs, cheesey costumes, so-so singing, lifeless performance. I felt like I was watching a bad episode of "The Partridge Family". Actually, I think I would have rather been watching The Partridge Family - I would have been more entertained. Don't waste your money.
