Award-winning ABBA tribute band to perform in Malta

Famed ABBA tribute band Revival will give a one-night-only charity concert at Gianpula Village on 9 November

-

The multi award-winning ABBA tribute band ABBA Revival will take to the stage in Malta later this year, promising an incredible night of singing and dancing at Gianpula Village on 9 November in aid of the Save Valletta’s Skyline appeal.

This disco-tastic 90-minute show features no fewer than six costume changes and plenty of fully-choreograp­hed dance routines. Audiences will be able to dance and singalong to ABBA favourites, including Waterloo, Dancing Queen, Mamma Mia and SOS, all on the legendary Gianpula dance floor. On top of that, DJ Ian Lang – one of Malta’s most popular DJs and the regular host of Isle of MTV – will keep the vibe going with a preand post-concert party. Best of all, it’s all for a good cause!

“The Valletta Skyline is a vital component of the beauty that is Malta,” says organiser Kirsten Grenside. “Here is a chance for the local community (and ABBA fans) to help preserve Malta’s unique history and iconic Skyline. So slap on the blue glitter eyeliner, pull on the bell-bottom jumpsuits and platform boots, and get ready for an unforgetta­ble fun-filled night that promises not only a spectacula­r show but also helps preserve our Maltese Heritage. How’s that for the ultimate feelgood factor?”

Timed to coincide not only with Valletta’s year as European Capital of Culture but also with the upcoming release of two new songs by the original members of ABBA and the Mamma Mia movie prequel, this SOS concert is bound to attract both new and existing fans. Recently voted the UK’s 2018 Official No.1 ABBA tribute act, the ABBA Revival stage show has already wowed audiences from Europe to the Middle East, as well as in the original band’s homeland of Sweden. The SOS concert will not be the first visit to Malta for the tribute band, since it performed an outdoor show for Malta’s Independen­ce Day to 20,000 people, which was also televised to two million more.

As this is likely to be a sell-out event, tickets for the show have gone on sale early – and interest is already high. Tickets are on sale now and start from €37 for a standard ticket and €69 for a VIP ticket, with early bird discounts available for each. Tickets for ‘SOS! ABBA Revival The Tribute’ are available now on www.ticketline.com.mt. The event will take place at Gianpula Village, Rabat on Friday, 9 November with doors opening at 8pm, a set by DJ Ian Lang, the ABBA/Revival show from 9.30pm and a further post-show set by DJ Ian Lang.
