PostNord 50th Anniversary of ABBA Winning Eurovision

POSTNORD on 6 April 2024 released three First Day Cover stamps to mark 50 years since the pop music group ABBA won Eurovision in Brighton (UK) with their song entitled “Waterloo”. 

That was on 6 April 1974 when Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson and Anni-Frid “Frida” Lyngstad -- ABBA, for short -- entered the already colourful stage at The Dome in Brighton dressed in shiny glam-rock costumes typical of the era.

After winning Eurovision,  ABBA went on to have a huge impact both in Sweden and the global music scene over the next 50 years. Their melodies, choruses and unique style made them one of the most successful pop groups of all time. 

To celebrate half a century of iconic pop music loved by listeners the world over, NordPost released an exclusive series of three stamps, sheetlets and maxi card, all postmarked from Stockholm, Sweden.
