They’ve sold out venues all over the world, and now, they’re bringing the beloved music of ABBA to life on UCPAC’s Main Stage.

ARRIVAL From Sweden: “The Music of ABBA” is the absolute best and most authentic ABBA show there is!

ARRIVAL From Sweden is the only group that has been given a previously unreleased ABBA song directly from Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson of ABBA. The song “Just A Notion” was released by ARRIVAL From Sweden in 1999 and was again released by the original ABBA in 2021 on their latest record “Voyage.”

This production features all the elements of a great ABBA show: lovely costumes, extremely talented musicians, and breathtaking singers. Millions of people all around the world celebrate this show as the best ABBA tribute in the world.
