INYIM Media Back To The Future: ABBA Attends First Public Event Together, As The Fantastic Four, In 36 Years!

"All four members of ABBA reunited in public Thursday night for the first time in 36 years as they attended the opening night of their ABBA Voyage concert residency in London.

Benny Andersson, Agnetha Fältskog, Anni-Frid Lyngstad, and Björn Ulvaeus walked the red carpet and posed for photos together as they entered the new ABBA Arena in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park to watch their own digital avatars hit the stage.

The virtual concert was created by using motion capture technology to make the band look younger and in all of their 1970s glory.

On the red carpet, lead singers Fältskog, 72, and Lyngstad, 76, both donned chic cream looks, with Fältskog in a long coat and coordinating draped dress and Lyngstad in a pantsuit.

Ulvaeus, 77, kept it simple in a classic black suit, while Andersson, 75, wore a black shirt and trousers beneath a floral print trench coat.

Celebrity ABBA fans Kylie Minogue and Kate Moss also attended the ritzy affair, with the “Can’t Get You Out of My Head” singer, 53, wearing a black, off-the-shoulder mini dress and the model, 48, rocking a fur coat, sequined top and black pants.

Oscar nominee Keira Knightley also attended with her husband, James Righton.

The Swedish pop group was formed in 1972 and broke up in 1982 after eight studio albums. In 2017, the foursome reunited to produce their most recent album, 2021’s “Voyage,” which was supported by singles “I Still Have Faith in You” and “Don’t Shut Me Down.”

Their digital avatars, aka “ABBAtars,” will be performing greatest hits as well as tracks from “Voyage” during the residency with a live 10-piece band.

“It’s about realizing that it’s inconceivable to be where we are,” Ulvaeus said while promoting the album last fall. “No imagination could dream up that, to release an album after 40 years and still be the best of friends, and still be enjoying each other’s company, and have a total loyalty.”" - Pagesix.com
