Why Watch Bjorn Again

The show was founded in 1988 in Melbourne by Rod Stephen. What began as a satirical spoof on ABBA turned into a worldwide cult status, initiating the ABBA revival that brought about a surge in the form of ABBA Gold, Muriel’s Wedding and Mamma Mia! In this highly entertaining world-class show, witness the biggest and the best hits of ABBA. With over 5,000 performances across 71 countries, Bjorn Again has established itself as the ultimate ABBA act. 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 Palladium and Hyde Park, the enduring appeal of ABBA is ever so reflective in the ongoing success of Bjorn Again.

Critically acclaimed and acknowledged by ABBA themselves, the act is widely regarded as the most successful tribute band of all time.

The Show

Sing along to all-time favourite numbers by ABBA like Mamma Mia, Dancing Queen, Money Money Money, and Take a Chance on Me with Bjorn Again, live at the Dubai Opera. Backed by a two-piece band of drummer and guitarist with ‘Benny’ and ‘Bjorn’ on keyboard and guitar respectively, Bjorn Again is an act that evokes a feeling of nostalgia. It is easy to mimic a group, but what takes effort is keeping it fresh and exciting. Bjorn Again overcomes this hurdle with ease, all the while injecting some friendly humour into their act while at the same time respecting the source material.

So, watch out for Swenglish accents, flares, platform shoes, glitzy sequin outfits, heaps of blue eye-shadow, and all those daggy dance routines and indulge in music that takes you back in time.
