Welcome to ABBA Omnibus | everything ABBA for everyone.
Happy new year, fans everywhere!
2026 marks three major ABBA anniversaries:
- The 50th anniversary of ABBA’s first Greatest Hits album (or local equivalent) getting worldwide release, first in the UK, then in much of the world including the US. *
- The 50th anniversary of ABBA’s landmark album Arrival, along with its associated megahits ‘Fernando’ and ‘Dancing Queen’.
- The 5th anniversary of ABBA’s amazing return album Voyage.
No doubt some or all of these anniversaries will be commemorated, but how we don’t know yet. We wait and see.
The first ABBA release of the year has already been announced: a 10-inch picture disc single of ‘Lay All Your Love On Me’ b/w ‘My Love, My Life’. Following last year’s heart-shaped disc, it looks like this will become a new Valentine’s Day tradition. Note that this year’s single features a song on the B-side from Arrival, celebrating its 50th anniversary, while last year’s featured a track from ABBA in its 50th anniversary year. Check the New releases page for all the pre-order links.
