FAQs

How much has ABBA Voyage cost? ›

Voyage takes place in a custom-built temporary stadium, ABBA Arena, and cost $175 million to develop, making it one of the most expensive live shows ever. It'll need to attract north of 2 million fans just to break even, but that seems doable with 650,000 tickets already sold.

Seats on the sides of the Auditorium are generally close in price to the Dance Floor. Seats in the center section, H, deliver the widest and most symmetrical view. They're the best seats and therefore expensive—expect £102 to £175 ($125 to $214) each, depending on demand.

We have to see how attractive it is. We've sold 380,000 tickets or so. It's good for a couple months.

Can you wear jeans to a concert? ›

But when it comes to style, comfort, and practicality, you can't go wrong with a pair of jeans or shorts. Especially if it's summer and especially if the concert is outside. Sometimes a band's set can go on for hours, so ensure you'll be comfortable all night by wearing your favorite denim bottoms.

The goal is to be comfortable and safe while at the concert so it's best to ditch the flip flops or heels for flats or sneakers. Concerts are all about getting dressed up, but don't overdo it with the jewelry either. Don't wear pieces that are too big, might fall off, or will bother you while you're rocking out.
