ABBA THE MUSEUM: New EXPO NUEVA
Cinco años después de la inauguración del museo, se estrena una exposición completa nueva sobre los miembros del grupo en el ABBA The Museum de Estocolmo. Una exposición que muestra todo lo que les ocurrió en los años posteriores a ABBA.
Los visitantes serán transportados a través de décadas de música poniendo el foco en Anni-frid, Björn, Benny y Agnetha. La exposición se inaugura al público el próximo 8 de mayo de 2018.
Five years after the opening of the museum, comes a completely new exhibition about the group’s members at ABBA The Museum in Stockholm, Sweden – an exhibition depicting everything that happened after their years in ABBA.
Visitors are taken on a journey through the decades of music focusing on Anni-Frid, Björn, Benny and Agnetha. The exhibition opens to the public on 8 May 2018.

Thirty-six years have passed since Sweden’s most successful musical export stopped performing together, but their songs are being played today more than ever. Five years after the opening of the museum, comes a completely new exhibition about the group’s members at ABBA The Museum in Stockholm, Sweden – an exhibition depicting everything that happened after their years in ABBA. Visitors are taken on a journey through the decades of music focusing on Anni-Frid, Björn, Benny and Agnetha. The exhibition opens to the public on 8 May 2018.
- Anything can happen – and has happened – when creativity is allowed to flow. The new exhibition will be full of gems, says Anni-Frid Lyngstad
- Because we pushed our creativity in so many directions after the ABBA years, I think the new exhibition is like a wonderful amusement park. And the most fantastic thing of all is that the journey never ends. We are on our way into a new, exciting adventure, there is more to come!, says Björn Ulvaeus
- We never really bade farewell to one another. We wanted to try new things, and the time never seemed right for a reunion. Yet the music has, of course, never left me. Much of what we achieved during the years after ABBA is now presented in the exhibition, says Benny Andersson
- The ABBA story did not end in 1982. One thing led to another, and the journey continued. We now see that in this exhibition, says Agnetha Fältskog

MusiKQMGusta / MusicILike @ ABBA, The Museum
Celebrando varios acontecimientos, entre ellos el 10º aniversario de MusiKQMGusta, este verano viajamos hasta Estocolmo, y como no, hicimos una parada en Abba, The Museum.
Celebrating several events, among them the 10th anniversary of MusicILike, this summer we travelled to Stockholm, and not surprisingly, we made a stop at Abba, The Museum.
Para conseguir las entradas estuvimos haciendo cola durante media hora, eso sí escuchando a Abba:
To get the tickets we were queuing for half an hour, but listening to Abba:
"HEAD OVER HEELS", "HEY, HEY HELEN", "WATCH OUT", "THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL", ONE MAN, ONE WOMAN", "I LET THE MUSIC SPEAK"...
La primera sala por la que se entra al museo es la dedicada a los 60º años de Eurovisión, que se estrenó en el último festival celebrado en Estocolmo en 2016. Están resaltados los 6 ganadores suecos del festival:
The first hall by which you enter the museum is the one devoted to the 60th years of Eurovision, which was open during the last contest celebrated in Stockholm in 2016. Special highlights for the 6 Swedish winners of the contest:
ABBA ('74), Herreys ('84), Carola ('91), Charlotte Nilsson ('99), Loreen ('12) & Mans Zelmerlow ('15).
Luego comienza el paseo por la historia pre-Abba de sus cuatro miembros. Los coches en que los Hep Stars de Benny y los Hootenanny Singers de Björn iba de gira.
After begins the ride of the pre-Abba history of the four members. The cars in which Benny's Hep Stars & Björn's Hootenanny Singers went on tour.
La siguiente sala comienza la historia de Abba propiamente dicha. El teléfono rojo que puede sonar con alguno de ellos llamando... No sonó mientras estuvimos. Y enfrente el momento de la victoria eurovisiva.
Abba's actual story starts in the next hall. The red phone which can ring with any of them calling... It didn't while we were there. And opposite the Eurovision victory momentum.
Luego comienzan las recreaciones de lugares emblemáticos de su historia:
Later it's time to recreate important places of their story:
The Djurgarden bench photo session.
Polar Music Offices.
Viggsö island hut.
La cabaña donde Benny y Björn solían componer.
The hut where Benny & Björn used to compose.
The "ARRIVAL" helicopter @ Barkarby airfield, North Stockholm.

Record expo de discos.
Abba, the shop.
Durante nuestra visita en Estocolmo estuvimos en varios lugares relacionados con Abba, muchos lugares de sus sesiones fotográficas y videos, como de Stortorget, jardines Drottingholm. Pasamos por delante de Mono Music, oficinas de Benny en Skeppsholmen, y también de su hotel el 'Rival' en Sodermalm, en barco cerca de la zona donde viven Benny y Björn, el Atelje studio in Skansen, que lamentablemente estaba cerrado. Y muchos otros...
