Björn Again are one of the most popular and most successful international entertainment acts in the world today. Established in Melbourne in 1988 by 2 research scientists, and soon to enter its 20th year of touring, Björn Again have performed sellout tours to critical acclaim in over 70 countries worldwide.

Björn Again delivers the highest quality and most entertaining ABBA show. As well as presenting the ABBA look and sound to perfection, with all the authentic costumes and makeup, hi-tech production, staging and lighting effects, there is a cheeky dose of parody, satire and on-stage theatrics that all combines to create a lot of fun and excitement for any audience and an hysterical response. No doubt this is helped by everyone knowing all the songs and words! The Björn Again concept in many ways is unique, and its career and global success fascinating.

Most notably, Björn Again is the only ABBA show endorsed by all members of ABBA, who have publicly praised and supported the band over many years. Very recently Björn Ulvaues stated on TV that he LOVES the name and thinks Björn Again are a lot of fun. It is interesting to note that Björn also credits Björn Again with initiating the ABBA revival of the early 90s.

ABBA were one of the biggest pop acts in the 70s, but their appeal has grown far larger since they disbanded in 1983, due to a number of progressive factors: the release of ABBA GOLD in '92, the 2 Australian films Muriel's Wedding and Priscilla Queen of The Desert (both featuring ABBA songs), the popularity of Mamma Mia! The Musical, and more recently the massive global success of Mamma Mia! The Movie, starring Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan. But, as acknowledged by the music and media industries, including a leading UK journalist, and ABBA themselves, this has all been helped along by Björn Again providing a highly entertaining live ABBA experience constantly since 1989.

Björn Again's career highlights over 20 years are many. They have performed Money Money Money to Bill Gates, Take A Chance On Me to Tom Jones, Ring Ring to Russell Crowe, Rock Me to Metallica, SuperTrouper to Kurt Cobain. SOS to Mr Bean' (Rowan Atkinson), and Dancing Queen to royals Andrew and Fergie. They have played Wembley Stadium, The Sydney Opera House, The Royal Albert Hall and at the Glastonbury Music Festival. Björn Again is without doubt an incredible success story and especially intriguing due to the fact it is a tribute act that has become a major international touring entity in its own right and captured the imagination of the world.

This is your chance to see the group hailed, by Benny himself, as the closest thing you'll ever get to ABBA! And according to Time Out, New York, USA: "Björn Again are maybe the most entertaining live rock show in the world today".

So get out your blue eyeshadow, glitter, platform shoes and flares and be ready to party with the most successful tribute band of all time in their sensational ABBA show! Great for the whole family.

"Fans had better make the most out of Björn Again because that's the closest they are going to get to seeing ABBA. ABBA will never reform!"BENNY ANDERSSON OF ABBA
