The sound and concept of ABBA Voyage
ABBA Voyage is a virtual concert residency, not a traditional tour. The show uses digital avatars of Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Anni-Frid, built from extensive motion capture sessions, performing alongside a live ten-piece band in the purpose-built ABBA Arena in east London.BBC review of ABBA Voyage
The set runs about 90 minutes and combines late-1970s visual styling with a modern sound system and sophisticated lighting design. The avatars perform core hits such as Dancing Queen, Mamma Mia, Waterloo and later songs like Don’t Shut Me Down, with the band mixed to resemble a full live show rather than a simple playback session.
Where ABBA stand in 2026
With ABBA Voyage continuing at the ABBA Arena and no physical tour announced, ABBA’s next confirmed live-related date is the ABBA Voyage performance block running at the London venue on August 31, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. and 7:45 p.m.
