Sang along with the songs
But on Wednesday, January 20, 2016, they went up on a small stage together. Rock The smoke billowed up in the Tyrol and the mist obscured was full ABBA waved to the audience's cheers.
After 20 seconds, they disappeared quickly again and the dance floor began to sway to the ABBA songs.
All four followed the premiere at the dining table in the vicinity of each other. There were also their families and colleagues Tommy Körberg, Helen Sjöholm, Marie and Tomas Ledin.

Abba stars take a chance on new Mamma Mia-themed venture

All four former members of the 1970s Swedish pop group Abba have reunited for the opening of a new business venture in the capital Stockholm.
The dining-entertainment venue, based on the Greek taverna featured in the Abba-themed film Mamma Mia!, is the idea of Abba star Bjorn Ulvaeus.
He was joined for the opening night by Benny Andersson, Anni-Frid Lyngstad, and Agnetha Faltskog.
They were last seen in public together in 2008, news website thelocal.se said.
Fans and guests paid 1,340 kronor (£110; $157) for a ticket to the opening night of Mamma Mia! The Party at the Tyrol restaurant in Grona Lund, Stockholm, on Wednesday, it added.
The venue's website says punters will enjoy a Mediterranean-style buffet while the show takes place.
"Everything happens on a magical evening in several acts filled with singing and dancing, daredevil stunts, Greek Gods, flirty waiters, and perhaps a zorba and an ouzo or two," it says.
"No evening is like any other and no-one knows how it ends. It all depends on where Abba's songs take us."
The four Abba stars were last seen in public together for the film premieres of Mamma Mia! in London and Stockholm in 2008, thelocal.se said.

The venue's website said guests would sit down for a Mediterranean-style buffet while enjoying the show.

"Everything happens on a magical evening in several acts filled with singing and dancing, daredevil stunts, Greek Gods, flirty waiters, and perhaps a zorba and an ouzo or two," it says.
"No evening is like any other and no-one knows how it ends. It all depends on where Abba's songs take us."
