ABBA The Museum

ABBA The Museum is a Swedish interactive exhibition about the pop band ABBA that opened in StockholmSweden in May 2013. ABBA‘s collected works are showcased in a contemporary, interactive setting at DjurgårdenStockholm.

ABBA The Museum is, despite its name, not a museum because it has no collections, does not conduct research and is for-profit. It is not a member of either Swedish ICOM or Riksförbundet Sveriges museer.

Exhibits

Exhibits at the museum include:

  • Benny’s Piano – A self-playing piano which is linked to Benny’s own piano in his home, so plays when he does.
  • Waterloo – A section, made out to look like Brighton in at the time of the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest has a collection of many items from that fateful event.
  • The Polar Studio – A recreation of the studio in which ABBA recorded most of their later music. Many items used in the studio are visible.
  • The Folkpark – The recreation of the site ABBA first met.
  • Audio Guides – An Audio Guided tour, written by Catherine Johnson, the writer of the screenplay for Mamma Mia!
  • Ring Ring – A special phone that only the four members of ABBA know the number to.
