ABBA The Museum chooses Trippus for ticket booking online! The official ticket booking opens on March 13 2008 at 10 am at the webbsite www.abbamuseum.com.
“We are very happy that ABBA the Museum has chosen our booking system,” says Carina Bergström, Marketing Manager for Trippus. “This is going to be a very exciting world attraction, and we are delighted to be a part of it”.
ABBA the Museum is being developed into a modern museum filled with ABBA music. You will find original items, photographs, instruments and much more that reminds of the group´s days of glory during the 1970´s and 1980´s. The museum will also be an interactive event building where the visitors may participate with all their senses.
Ulf Westman about the museum:
"This will be a museum on an international level. Plenty of multimedia and interactivity, and we will tell the story in an entertaining way, with the visitors themselves as part of the attraction. We have succeeded if our guests both sing, dance, laugh and cry and, upon leaving, want to go back in again", says Ulf Westman, one of the two founders of ABBA the Museum.
The visitors will follow a linear story from the early years when Björn, Benny, Agnetha and Anni-Frid had separate careers, until they took a break in 1983. The visitors will enter at one place, enjoy the attraction and then reach a separate exit.
Ewa Wigenheim-Westman about the attractions:
"We will recreate the Brightonstage, the helicopter from Arrival, the disco aura from Voulez-Vous, the Mamma Mia! success story and much more. We will illustrate the group´s career ups and downs, capture the feeling of ABBA’s world tours and you will experience what it really was like in the recording studio. The visitors will be a part of the audience, get backstage access, sing like Agnetha and Anni-Frid, dance like a John Travolta and even experience what it was like to be one of the ABBA member´s."
"You get to meet musicians, record a video, sing the ABBA songs, meet the people around the group and, naturally, ABBA themselves in many different ways. How? Well, of course we can’t reveal everything right now."
“Concert” or “film” is our dynamic concept as we’re creating the attraction. We have an intro, we mix uptempo with ballads, we finish with a finale and if there is enough applause there might be an encore", says Ewa Wigenheim-Westman, also a founder of ABBA the Museum.
