Anyone been to Abba Voyage?

[AbbaDabbaDooo]

Taking my mum to a 3pm show there. I wondered if anyone could advise-

The website says to arrive an hour early. Is there a lot of queuing etc?

If we are there early, are there things to do before the show starts, eg merch stalls, a bar?

Thanks!

Didn’t find the queues too bad, was busy once inside. Thought it was very well organised overall. There are bars/merch stands.

Enjoy it - I thought it was fabulous!

My mum went last night- said it was excellent!
She said it was very well organised, including the transport if you go via the DLR. You do the security checks etc

I absolutely loved it. There is a MN thread already with loads of information. I will try and find it.

Sorry looks like the link no longer works

Brill, thank you!

I went , really enjoyed the show, but I feel that an hour before hand is too long to looking at overpriced souvenir tat.

Try this one

An hour is about right but it’s vv well organised. Go, you’ll have a blast!

I think we arrived about 30 minutes before. No need to get there an hour early. We had time to go to the toilets and have a drink.
If you have tickets for the dance floor - yikes they are packed in there like sardines.

DD and I went late November , we go for a Christmas Night Out and I am overly fond of an ABBA Tribute

We got ther about an hour early , found out from the tickets which gate we were going through then went to one of the coffee/wine hubs for a cup of coffee first .
Once you're inside there's more food/drink , TShirts etc
Toilets are good , plentiful and clean.
We were on the Dance Floor zone . ( I wore a cross body bag for all my valuables so hands free -for the dancing and waving )

There were a few songs I didn't recognise and from the looks on other peoples faces I dont think they did either !
My only gripe was my Number 1 Favourite ABBA song wasn'r played and my Number 2 Favourite was sung by the backing singers , I was pissed off .

After a very fw minutes you forget they're CGI and really do believe the show is real !

I;d like to go again, it is a pricey night out though. (£200 incl insurance )
On the way back , the DLR only let a set number through at a time so the trains weren't swamped which made it easier to travel .

I really think they could do a lot more with the pre show experience considering how much the tickets cost and how short the actual show is.
