One of the most anticipated comebacks in pop culture has finally come to pass: the return of Abba. The group – Benny Andersson, Agnetha Fältskog, Anni-Frid Lyngstad and Björn Ulvaeus – have also announced a new concert experience in London, also called Voyage, beginning in May 2022. Digital versions of themselves (not holograms, their team asserted) will appear nightly alongside a 10-piece live band at a new 3,000-capacity venue in the city’s Olympic Park, called the Abba Arena. The group also announced that meeting up for the project had “an unexpected consequence. Nobody … It is such fun and we have been longing for this for such a long time.”Why do the project now?
