Mamma Mia! Finally, what I’ve been waiting for–I can now follow an Abba city walk in Stockholm, the city where the band lived and worked.

Stockholm City Museum starts their Abba City Walk in English this summer from July 1 every Friday and Saturday at 4pm right through to September. The tour lasts 2 hours.

You start at Stadshuset (City Hall) where Benny performed for the very first time, then on to the Sheraton Hotel, a 1970s’ landmark where some of the hotel scenes from Abba-The Movie were filmed. It continues through Gamla Stan (Old Town) where Benny and Anni-Frid once lived and also includes the Royal Opera, which was the location of the 1976 royal wedding gala performance, when Abba no doubt sang “I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do”.

Tickets SEK 120 can be bought at the Stockholm City Museum or www.ticnet.se.
