Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees ABBA will be the subjects of their very own permanent museum exhibition when it opens next year in Stockholm.
"Swedish pop music is an important part of our cultural heritage," said former ABBA member Bjorn Ulvaeus, who is also co-directing the exhibit. "And ABBA is one of our most well-known brands."
The installation, set inside Sweden's pop music hall of fame, will allow "Dancing Queen" fans to tour memorabilia (like the actual outfits worn by singer Agnetha Fältskog and the rest of the band) and to interact with lifesize holograms of the group.
