I took my friend for the first time yesterday. (Was my 6th) He was just so overwhelmed by it all. I think he sobbed all the way through it, which made me cry seeing his reaction. ABBA have really created magic. That’s the only word I can use to describe it. Pure magic.
I went with my Dad on 18th August for the first time (rail and tube strikes and a flood at Pudding Mill Lane that week tried and failed to dampen our enthusiasm) and it was so amazing but still hasn't sunk in. I definitely need to book and go again. Without giving anything away to others, it did feel very emotional the way the ABBAtars first entered the stage. Re: the arena itself, it was amazing and beautiful and exciting. We were in G, and row P so right on the back row and the view was amazing. It was a sell-out, obviously, but the foyer felt very buzzy but not overly crowded. The queues for merchandise and refreshments were fine, and I was nearly as excited about the ABBA logo paper bag as the actual programme inside it.
Love the Abba T-shirt. What is also nice is having the extra merchandise now for the Anniversary of ABBA Gold. Would be great to see the album back at the top.
Actually, Ludvig said recently in an interview that not only has the group done performances for many (and that's the word he did in fact use) other songs, but they plan on changing songs out in the future and making changes and updates to the show itself. In addition, they're looking for other permanent residencies around the world, specifically Asia and North America. This is in light of the recent news that the residency will be continuing on until Spring 2026.
Hi Diego...I'm that guy!....Emotional for the terrific show, but so many memories awakened and then the memory of friends and fans taken by AIDS who died too young who should have been there.I had the same feelings watching Channel4's It's a Sin, the amount of buried memories that brought back... Anyhow nice to meet you!
Ah, fantastic. So happy you have messaged! Yes, those kinds of memories come straight back. I always cry at Chiquitita because it reminds me of my dear mother. She adored the Spanish version. Happy Livestream Anniversary by the way. Diego.
I did see some of the concert via CZcams before it was removed, and I want to say it has encouraged me more to go to see it for myself. I know it was illegally film but wow from what I saw it won't spoil my experience. This is only my view so please no negative comments ty
That's great if the shows are being extended for another year. Love your t-shirt with the multi colour design. I think I would be emotional as well after seeing this.
I am going for the first time in October. Just sorting my 70s outfit white jeans and orange and brown shirt and staying in the Snoozebox for all the Abba vibe, can't wait. Thanks for the posts.
how nice to hear your fresh news and xperience.As for this article,it was clearly reported about some lil change in set list!How exciting.Just hope 'THE VISITORS' (opening track-since every knows that- to be left as it is) and also add one or two more Voyage tracks as well.
So good to see you Diego any chance the 7-in and 12-in vinyl of don't shut me down on red and keep an eye on Dan will ever be released commercially? I would pay premium price for them hope to see you in giventoe's live stream soon my best always Gene from New York State USA
Hi. Well we were kind of hoping we’d get vinyls of the singles, but there has been nothing, so I assume there won’t be now. It’s do it yourself I guess.
Great to see your latest video Diego. Seeing the show 5 times, I’m so jealous!! I won’t be there until next year. Hoping if it comes to Australia, Melbourne hosts it. I saw the Abba exhibition in Federation square Melbourne a few years ago, loved it.. Do you recommend any particular hotel in London? Do you always stay in the same one near the Arena? I take on board wherever you sit is a good view, was curious where to sit when booking. Greetings from Australia..
Hi I am planning to travel from Sweden in May 2023 to see Abba Voyage. Here at home, it has been written in newspapers that the show went so well that it has been extended until 2026 and that it would be sold out 9 months from now. Have you heard anything about it? Having difficulty getting in touch with Ticket master. Do you know if there are cheap seated tickets? For like 25 pounds?
Hi Eva. As far as I can see May 2023 is still the last month you can book. They haven’t yet changed the ABBAVoyage.com site yet with extended dates. As for prices, only disabled and assistants have access to very cheap seats. The cheapest I could see were GBP £53.00 in the dance floor (standing), seated seats are from £101.00. I know they are expensive but I don’t see the prices changing. I did see 2 seats for zone H (where we sat May 27) each at £150.00.
Someone has posted the whole concert and I have reported it, hope it is removed soon. These people are disgusting who are going against the rules, makes me mad with anger 😡
Hey 👋 Fabulous your definitely on a crusade of hitting record breaking attendance’s 😂 😉 So pleased you had taken your niece it’s fantastic seeing their reactions and thoughts emotions ect 😀🥹 I’m going again early next year this time with partner who isn’t an ABBA fan but but he wants to experience it after all I haven’t shut up about it since the premiere in May ekkkk 😂

Gosh, haven't seen it yet,never saw them live and reading all these i get wet eyed already.

Ugh I am so jealous!!!
Will they ever bring this ABBA Voyage to Australia or USA?!?
Really don't know. I'd love Sydney to get it. It's all about logistics and on whether there are enough in the population to attract a stay there.
I would love it if the show comes to Australia.
I’m going back again, really looking forward for my 3rd time 😂
Ey up, missus 🤪 Germany has always been a bigger record selling market for ABBA than UK.
AMO TUDO DE VOCÊ E ABBA MANDA TUDO SEU INCRÍVEL AQUI SÓ VOCÊ É ABBA QUERO VER I, LOVE ABBA 👍

Great video, I think I merged into all three of the fan categories as I left the Arena! 😆 I can’t wait to return!
😃 thank you!
I've seen you and your niece sunday afternoon at the Abba arena ! Then at the Snoozebox terrace . We went second time now, was the 100th show :)
Fab video Diego, thanks for the mention. Was such a joyous night again. Nice to meet your lovely niece! We all had a blast!
Yes for Berlin for ABBA Voyage next. Nice city and easy to get too from many places.
I love the t shirt
