ABBAMANIA THE SHOW

About

ABBAMANIA THE SHOW is a large-scale ABBA tribute production that has been touring Germany, Austria and Switzerland for over two decades, billing itself as the world's biggest ABBA tribute show. The cast of professional musical-theatre singers is backed by a live band and a Symphonic Rock Orchestra, and the show spans ABBA's catalogue from the 1974 Eurovision breakthrough with "Waterloo" through to the 2021 comeback album "Voyage". A notable feature is the involvement of Janne Schaffer - the Swedish guitarist who played on some 50 ABBA studio recordings - as a guest musician on tour. The production is organised by Semmel Concerts Entertainment and has expanded beyond the DACH region to include dates in the Netherlands and Czech Republic.
