Frida and Björn attended ABBA - The Official Anniversary Party on behalf of ABBA.
The event was also the launch of ABBA - The Official Photo Book.
A massive party was held at The Tate Modern in London and 1000 fans and 500 VIP guests attended with the event organised by the book's publishers Max Ström.
On arrival at the event, they gave various media interviews. The news of the death of Peaches Geldof broke just before their arrival so they were asked for comments in one of the interviews.
They were taken straight upstairs to a VIP party upstairs (for sponsors of the event) and then were introduced to the waiting crowds in the massive hall by Jeppe Wikström, publisher of the ABBA - The Official Photo Book.
It was quite a night. There was an exhibition of photos from the photo book, cardboard figures of ABBA members (but they seemed to disappear quickly!), hot dogs for sale (Stig's favourite), blown-up ABBA pictures to put your heads through, opportunities to buy the photo book ... but best of all was a fantastic ABBA disco. The ABBA Museum Choir made an appearance also.
There is quite a range of footage, some of it by news stations and many by fans.
