Can you hear the drums Fernando? Well you'll soon be able to as top ABBA tribute Bjorn Again arrive in Newcastle.
The world renowned tribute to the Swedish supergroup have just announced a string of new tour dates for the UK, which include a show at the City Hall on December 13 - right in time for a Christmas party!
Bjorn Again's internationally acclaimed show was created and founded in 1988 in Melbourne by Rod Stephen. Designed as a rocked-up light-hearted satirical ABBA spoof, the show rapidly achieved worldwide Cult status and acknowledged for singlehandedly initiating the ABBA revival which brought about ABBA Gold, Muriel’s Wedding and Mamma Mia!
The enduring appeal of ABBA is reflected in the ongoing success of the Bjorn Again show having amassed 5,000 performances in 72 countries in 31 years.
Hailed as the most popular and successful show of its type, the tribute's career highlights over the years are many. From performing at Buckingham Palace for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth and The Duke of Edinburgh to touring with Cher, Shania Twain and playing at Wembley Arena, London’s prestigious Royal Albert Hall, London Palladium and Hyde Park.
Acknowledged by ABBA’s blonde vocalist Agnetha Fältskog, the ultimate aim, as always for Rod is to keep his brand at the top and continue for as long as people want to hear the much-loved ABBA repertoire performed the way only the BJÖRN AGAIN show does.
Talking about the tour, Rod Stephen said: “ We are really looking forward to touring again this year. Come and join us for loads of great songs combined with tons of fun and antics.”
Performing all of the greatest hits, this promises to be one of the biggest parties of 2019!
*Tickets are on sale from 9am on Friday, June 28 and available from Ticketmaster and Gigs and Tours.
