I wont be writing much about how amazing the museum is (it’s breathtaking for any ABBA fan, you know that if you are a fan), but I’d like to share some tips and suggestions on your visit. I booked the tickets online for a timed entry. At the time of my visit on November 2004 there was a temporary exhibit about ABBA the Voyage show in London. Just one room downstairs. After that you can proceed to the rest of the museum or you can go to the lockers. Lockers are free. I highly suggest you leave your jackets, coats, bulky bags etc in a locker and just take your wallet and a phone in a small bag or even put them in your pocket. The museum is very narrow and at times cramped, it’ll make it much easier for you to move around without bulky items. Next to the lockers are restrooms. There is A LOT of reading in the museum. If you require glasses to read, take them as you might not always be able to come too close to the info boards due to the crowds. There is an option to download an app/guide about the museum that you can listen as you move from one exhibit to another. Bring headphones so you don’t have to constantly hold your phone to your ear. I downloaded that app/guide but it seemed to be a bit confusing at times what track follows what and I opted out of it eventually. There was plenty of info to read along the exhibitions. Read everything. Absorb everything. Sing along. It’s once in a lifetime experience. There are no restrooms along the museum route, you’d have to go back all the way to the beginning/entrance if you need to use restrooms. The gift shop is at the very end and was a bit disappointing to me. I was really set on getting a souvenir to remind me of my visit but nothing really stood out. Clothing items had very high prices. One of the shirts seemed nice to me but there were only XL and XXL sizes. The store staff said it’s a very popular item and sells out fast (suggestion, maybe order more?). The Maneken had a shirt of my size on but the staff girl refused to sell it to me 🤷🏼‍♀️) There is a cafe attached to the museum, when I was leaving around 2:30pm, it was packed. I didn’t look at the menu or prices. I was there for nearly 4.5 hours. I wouldn’t recommend you come to the museum with small or younger kids, it’s very small/cramped and dark and lots of reading. Unless kids are crazy about ABBA like their parents, I doubt they’ll enjoy the museum. I absolutely loved touring the museum.

ABBA Museum Stockholm Walk in dance about then shop. As a child in the seventies there was no way I would miss this. It lived up to all expectations, was informative, fun and we stayed for hours.  I would recommend buying tickets online to check the museum is open to avoid disappointment, get there at 10am right on opening.  Not many people there at that time when we went. Overall wonderful. I would do it again.

We visited this museum during our trip to Stockholm. Although the entrance is very expensive, I recommend the visit because ABBA is an institution here in Sweden (and not only) and then I enjoyed being able to see the memorabilia and try the different interactivity of the museum, including trying to mix some songs or follow the choreography with their holograms. Overall a nice and interesting experience. Recommendation to go on days and times with less turnout, if possible avoid the weekend because there is a lot of queue.

Some really strange comments on here that paint an odd picture of this museum. Yes, it is downstairs under ground level but to simply say it's "in a basement" makes it sound amateurish. This is an ultra professional set up endorsed and opened by the band. We pre booked and had no issues getting in and no queue. Really well put together, giving you a timeline from before they formed right through their career and also a room featuring stuff from their individual careers after the band split including memorabilia from Chess and Mamma Mia. There is absolutely loads of things on display, all authentic memorabilia provided by the band. I'd say whether a fan of ABBA or not this is a must do in Stockholm. It's reasonably priced, we were in there probably around 60-90 minutes. Lots of interactive bits including karaoke booths and your opportunity to go and perform on stage with hologram versions of the band. Massive gift shop. Unisex toilets are perfectly safe despite some bizarre reviews on here suggesting criminals could get in (?!?). Bar and restaurant attached is a little pricey.

Museum exceeded expectations. This is a tourist attraction and priced as such. The museum’s interactive exhibits were a total blast, offering a thrilling and engaging experience worth every penny. Suggest getting there when they open to fully enjoy without the crowds. Immerse yourself and guarantee it won't feel like a waste of money. The vibrant atmosphere and catchy tunes will have you feeling like you could dance the night away! What an unforgettable experience!

I was so excited to see this Museum. It's hugely popular but I didn't book a timeslot - I just turned up as I was staying at the hotel on site. If you stay at the Backstage Hotel you get a discount but you have to ask for it. I loved the way the Museum is set up and it takes you on a journey from ABBA's beginnings through to their global success. There is a Voyage exhibition on the first floor too with Voyage costumes. The interactive things everyone raves about - the helicopter photo op, the '5th member' singing experience - it's massively crowded and you have to wait. Also, as a solo visitor, I had no one to take a photo so I didn't bother with this. I had no idea this Museum is in a basement without windows and it has narrow passageways. Be aware of this if you're uncomfortable in small spaces.

Any Abba fan probably has to come here while in Stockholm. Book online beforehand and go early - by 1100 the queues were long, and too many people are let in on each session. It’s a great place for wallowing in some Abba nostalgia, and there is always some familiar track on in the background, but rooms get crowded, hot, and there is nearly always a queue for anything interactive. The museum is arranged like an IKEA store, ie you wiggle round in one direction, but it is possible to backtrack while inside. There’s enough to see and do for 1 hour at least, and 2 if you watch every video, of which there are a lot. The No. 7 tram stops right outside the entrance, and the Djurgarden ferry stop is only a few minutes’ away.

Definitely for die hard ABBA fans. What can I say? As a lifelong ABBA fan, I loved it. Lots of interesting background to the band's formation and creative output, loads of fun interactive exhibits, including a karaoke style sound booth, a silent disco, and a chance to be on stage lip syncing with holograms of the original band members. I thought the tickets were overpriced at 299 Kr per person--it's more expensive than the Vasa Museum, which is one of the best museums I've ever been to. However, I was inspired by the first exhibit to purchase tickets to the ABBA Voyage experience in London next week, which I had not heard of before, and am now really excited about!

Visit to the museum dedicated to the flagship group of Sweden. This site is dedicated to fans and only for them. Indeed, for the simply curious, nothing very interesting. We quickly expose the front ABBA, then tours and highlights of the band but we evacuate the split of the band and the origins of this split. In the end, what do we learn about the band? His experience? About his limbs? Pretty little. This museum will satisfy only fans who, beyond the exorbitant price (25€/person) will be able to remember the glory moments of the band.

I actually haven't listened to a lot of ABBA in my life - although I certainly racked up the time on my Scandinavian road trip! - but I still knew I needed to go to the ABBA Museum while in Sweden. We hadn't realized that you needed to pre-book tickets, so we showed up and saw the long line and weren't sure if we'd able to go at all. Thankfully, they were making announcements explaining that you could book tickets online and when the next slots were available. The online ticket system kept failing for us though, so we went up to the counter, and they helped us get tickets purchased at the online price (slightly cheaper than the in-person price) when we showed them the error we were receiving on our phone. It was SO. CROWDED. I would hate to see how bad it would get if they weren't trying to space out the crowd with timed entry. It was a neat museum with some interactive elements, but it was hard to fully enjoy the whole experience with so many people there.
