The ABBA-inspired hit musical Mamma Mia! is coming to the Principality of Monaco later this year for six performances in the original English version and the ticket office has already opened. 

When Swedish pop group ABBA came together in 1972, there was no way of knowing that, over 50 years later, their music would be continuing to inspire and entertain generations of fans. 

Nine studio albums, two live albums, seven compilation albums, four box sets, five video albums, 50 singles and 43 music videos later, their catalogue of hits has stood the test of time and provided the base for the wildly successful Mamma Mia! musical, which premiered London’s theatre district in 1999 and is now the third longest running musical in West End history.

It has since become a cult staple on Broadway in New York too, as well as on the international touring circuit, delighting more than 65 million people in 16 different languages over the years. Now it is coming to Monaco. 

On stage at the Grimaldi Forum

The sweet, comic tale of a free-spirited mother living on Greek island with her daughter, whose world gets turned upside-down when her three possible fathers reunite for her wedding, will hit the stage of the Salle des Princes at the Grimaldi Forum for a series of six performances in English with French subtitles between 9th and 13th October. Among these will be two matinee performances at 3pm on 12th and 13th October.  

Tickets for the show are already on sale and will likely be snapped up quickly. Prices range from €45 to €95 in the Carré Or seating zone.
