Making the rounds of Manila’s concert scene at the height of the global nCOV scare is ABBA tribute band, ABBAMANIA. And they did it ahead of the Valentine concerts by the local artists.
Yes, ABBAMANIA, direct from London’s West End was in Manila over the weekend to entertain loyal fans anew.
Europe’s leading ABBA tribute band, ABBAMANIA celebrated 40 years of ABBA on February concert tour in Manila. Created in 1999, ABBAMANIA takes you back in time by recreating one of the world’s finest pop groups in a live stage performance. This highly polished and professional production played its first shows in 2000.
In 2002, ABBAMANIA was invited to perform at London’s West End, and played for 18 weeks at the Strand Theatre. In November 2002, the show made its German debut at the Deutsches Theatre Munich where it sold every seat in the house for 21 performances!
In 2003, ABBAMANIA toured extensively throughout Europe selling out theatres wherever they performed, including 24 consecutive shows in the Schiller Theatre in Berlin, and Cologne Arena selling 10,000 tickets in one night.
The show has toured internationally in regions as far afield as Venezuela, North America, Tahiti, Mexico, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Holland, Denmark, Sweden, Luxembourg, and many more, making this the world’s most successful touring ABBA show.
Pinoy fans were on their toes as the group serenaded them with “Dancing Queen,” “Mamma Mia,” “Fernando,” “Chiquitita,” and many more. THE CONCERT TOUR was scheduled February 11 at the New Frontier Theater, Quezon City February 13 At Tarlac City, February 14 At The Tent, Solaire Resort Manila, and on February 15 at San Fernando Pampanga. This was to make sure that once again ABBA fans are “having the time of your life”.
