Two classic pop bands meet in a magical Candlelight concert by candlelight at Draken Live.
ABBA is a Swedish pop group formed in Stockholm in 1972 by Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson and Anni-Frid Lyngstad. Their 1974 Eurovision win with 'Waterloo' launched one of the biggest careers in pop history, and their catalogue - from 'Dancing Queen' to 'The Winner Takes It All' - has kept finding new audiences across generations. After a 40-year recording gap, the group returned with the studio album 'Voyage' in 2021 and launched a groundbreaking digital concert residency of the same name in London, where avatar versions of the four members perform alongside a live band.
'Dancing Queen' turned 50 on 14 August 2026, marked by a limited-edition vinyl reissue remastered at Abbey Road Studios and fan events internationally.
Björn Ulvaeus was re-elected president of CISAC (the International Confederation of Societies of Authors and Composers) for the 2026-2029 term.
ABBA Voyage reached the milestone of four million visitors to its London residency.
ABBA Voyage refreshed its setlist, adding four classic songs while rotating two of the group's biggest hits.
Spotify reported that Gen Z listeners make up 50% of ABBA's global streaming audience in 2025, with catalogue streams up 150% over five years.
