'ABBA' To Go On 2009 World Tour

December 15, 2008

A tribute museum to the Swedish pop group ABBA is to go on a world tour next year.

ABBA The Museum will feature over 750 pieces of memorabilia, from the band's music to unique fan displays.

The decision to take the exhibition around the world was made following the huge success of the film adaptation of Mamma Mia!.

The film, released earlier this year, is already the most successful British movie of all time.

According to Cision, specific tour stops for the museum have yet to be confirmed.
