    Event description

    As we wrap up our 40th anniversary celebrations , we want to Thank You with the Music. 

    We’ve had an incredible 40th anniversary year, and we’ve decided to make our upcoming event FREE to say THANK YOU to all our volunteers, members, staff, and supporters!

    Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) - we have The Choir by ABBA The Museum to help us end our 40th anniversary year. 

    On the subject of anniversaries, this year is the fiftieth anniversary of ABBA's breakthrough, winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974 with Waterloo. This year we celebrated the 40th anniversary of our founding on the 12th of July at the Laird in 1983. The Choir by ABBA The Museum is touring in Melbourne and we are so excited to have a special performance just for Thorne Harbour Health 

    The Choir by ABBA The Museum is a continuation of ABBA's legacy, dedicated to celebrating the music of the iconic band with love and respect. The choir is a living act spreading and developing ABBA's music through its performances.
    Come and celebrate the end of our 40th anniversary year whilst experiencing some of ABBA's biggest hits performed by this Swedish pop choir, in a night that will leave you singing, dancing, and joyous.

    For this exclusive performance for Thorne Harbour Health, tickets are now FREE but spaces are limited.

    More about the Choir 

    THE CHOIR by ABBA The Museum was founded as a pop choir in 2014 by ABBA The Museum to celebrate the 40th anniversary of ABBA's victory in the Eurovision Song Contest in Brighton in 1974. The choir's 50 original members were selected by audition in collaboration with the Swedish Choir Association and Karin Bäckström, who was also the choir's first artistic director. From ABBA's musical treasure trove, songs were selected and translated by Göran Arnberg into choir arrangements.

    Since the autumn of 2015, the choir has been an independent group in a smaller format in close collaboration with ABBA The Museum and others within the ABBA family. The choir has performed at several official ABBA events both in Sweden and internationally. Among other things, the choir has performed in live TV programs such as SVT's New Year's program Tolvslaget, TV4 Nyhetsmorgon New Year's Eve and in 2019 the choir held a concert in Helsingborg Concert Hall and toured in China. In 2023 The Choir toured in Australia.

    The choir has its very own sound, which rests on solid ABBA foundations. The arrangements, recorded instrumental backgrounds, stage clothes etc. are created within the ABBA family especially for the choir. The choir performs with accompaniment or a cappella, with varying performances and song selections from the ABBA catalog.
