Abba stars Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson shared a £12m dividend from Abba Voyage in March after the virtual concert surpassed four million visitors. The London production launched in 2022 and features digital versions of the band as they appeared in 1979, performing with a live 10-piece band at a custom-built arena in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Abba Voyage paid £29.9m in licensing fees in 2025, up from £5.9m a year earlier, providing additional income to the group. Agnetha Fältskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad do not own a stake in the production but receive royalties and licensing fees for their recorded vocals and likenesses. Revenue fell to £89.2m from £104.3m, while profit declined by a third to £5.5m as performances dropped to 348 from 374 during two scheduled maintenance periods. More than £3m in tax credits under a scheme designed to attract major productions to the UK boosted the bottom line. UK-based Aniara Limited paid the dividend to Swedish parent company Goldonder, co-founded by Ulvaeus, Andersson and private equity tycoon Conni Jonsson. Universal Music is also an investor. The show’s London run has been extended until June 2027. Ulvaeus and Andersson also control Littlestar Services, which produces the Mamma Mia! stage musical and film adaptations; Littlestar paid a £2.4m dividend and £5.7m in fees for the year ending in March.
