BJORN AGAIN – The World’s Number One ABBA Show
Bjorn Again is the world’s Number One ABBA tribute band. Formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1988, the band has now toured over 120 countries to international critical acclaim.
Proclaimed as ‘One of the Most Entertaining Shows in The World’, the band performs all the biggest ABBA hits in a dazzling world class production. At any moment the audience turns into a mosh pit during ‘Dancing Queen’, is dialling imaginary phones in ‘Ring Ring’, is screaming ‘Gimme Gimme Gimme’ at the top of their lungs or crying during ‘I Have a Dream’ or ‘Winner Takes It All’. The show can also feature extra performers, insane drums solos and many unexpected theatrics. Oh, and there is also a healthy dose of satire as well. The show is a lot of fun and a great night out for the whole family. In fact, the band has adopted a new legion of young fans who adore the ‘Mamma Mia’ movies. All this has Bjorn Again as one of the most popular bands and a household name world-wide.
Bjorn Again, which is basically ‘ABBA – BORN AGAIN’, have played prestigious venues in the world such as The Royal Albert Hall, The Sydney Opera House, The Point in Dublin, and Wembley Stadium in London. They have also played alongside the biggest acts in the world at most of the biggest rock festivals including Glastonbury, Roskilde, Reading, and The Big Red Bash in Birdsville and Mundi Mundi in Broken Hill, Australia.
Their performances have attracted many famous faces, including Tom Jones, Nirvana, Robert Plant, Paul Kelly, Metallica, and JK Rowling. Some of the biggest names in the business and entertainment world have booked Bjorn Again for private shows, including Russell Crowe, Bill Gates, and Rowan Atkinson. Dave Growl of The Foo Fighters and Nirvana is one of the band’s ardent fans.
‘ABBA – BORN AGAIN’
One of the band’s biggest moments came in 1992 when they met ABBA’s Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus in person in Sweden. And in 2000, Benny put all rumours of an ABBA reunion to rest when he declared:
‘Fans had better make the most out of Bjorn Again because that’s the closest they are going to get to seeing ABBA. ABBA will never reform!’
