ABBA exhibition to open in London

London’s Southbank Centre and Entertainment Exhibitions International AB has announced that they will be opening an exhibition all about the history of ABBA, created in collaboration with the official ABBA museum in Stockholm. The exhibition promises to showcase material previously unseen by even the most devoted ABBA fans, including personal photographs and letters from band members, original instruments and costumes, and photography from Lasse Hallström.
ABBA’s Frida Lyngstad was enthusiastic about the upcoming project, saying, “We are thrilled to be supporting the new exhibition ABBA: Super Troupers in London, especially since ABBA have always been very appreciative of the love and support shown to us by our fans in the UK. We are so excited that the exhibition is taking place at the Southbank Centre, which is just a few short steps away from Waterloo - this connection brings to mind very happy memories of the song that started our great success in Britain!”
The artistic director for Southbank Centre, Jude Kelly, spoke of the timeless importance of the band’s music and their impact on pop history, saying, “ABBA’s music, image and personal stories have the remarkable ability to transcend time, place and generations, and still continue to reach millions of people worldwide. We're very pleased to take this opportunity to shed new light on these cultural icons, and explore why they remain so enduring in their appeal across the globe. We’re delighted to be joining forces with EEI in association with ABBA The Museum to bring unexplored archives to life, and to pay respect to ABBA and their extraordinary place in pop culture history.” 
The exhibition will run at London’s Southbank Centre from December 14, 2017 – April 29, 2018.
