Musicon Entertainment Presents:

World-class, International Tribute to ABBA - The Bjorn Identity, Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Waterloo.

In 1974, ABBA won the Eurovision Song Contest with an iconic performance which made music history propelling the Swedish supergroup to international stardom.

The Bjorn Identity hailing from Northern Ireland, have become one of the most sought-after tribute shows in Europe. Following recent tours of Germany & Austria they return for yet another smash-hit night, delivering a brand new show, celebrating the Swedish pop phenomenon’s legendary night with a special 50th Anniversary Concert.

The Bjorn Identity perform a 2-hour LIVE show pack in all of ABBA's greatest hits and much more; sure to impress even the most die-hard of Abba music enthusiasts. Their attention to detail in both staging and musicianship makes them one of the most exciting "ABBA Tribute bands" experienced this side of Sweden. Featuring Karen Rush & Sophie Grier as Agnetha & Frida, they deliver with uncanny vocal prowess and undeniable stage presence. In fact, the band even boasts "real-life" couples. Along with Benny's famous spinning white Yamaha piano, when you experience The Bjorn Identity you will go home feeling like a No.1.

So, let’s re-live the magic of ABBA from 1974-2024 with both old songs and new. Early booking is advised to finally face your Waterloo!

Portico

The Portico of Ards ('Portico') is an Arts and Heritage Centre in Portaferry, County Down, at the mouth of Strangford Lough in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (45 mins south of Belfast).

Built in 1841, Portico is a venue with unique grade A listed Greek architecture. It is owned by the charity Portico of Ards Ltd. but still used every Sunday morning by the Portaferry Presbyterian congregation (now our tenants).

Portico was restored and reopened in 2016 as a venue for events: Classical, Comedy, Country, Folk, Jazz, Organ, Pop, Rock, Theatre and more!

We also offer guided tours of the architecture, heritage exhibitions and the refurbished organ with its spectacular modern console.

Portico is a social enterprise that aims to make life better for locals and visitors. We believe that arts and heritage brings joy to individuals and social and economic benefits to the wider community by attracting visitors and local spend.

Our wonderful team of volunteers make it all happen!
