2024 is a year to celebrate half-centuries! Not only does it mark Excursions™ Show’s 50th anniversary and also 50 years since Abba won the Eurovision Song Contest. Therefore, the show’s organisers are delighted that this year’s opener will pay tribute to Abba and Eurovision.
The Brent Youth Pop Orchestra will welcome you to Excursions 2024 at Wembley Stadium. Whilst many of the performers were not even born when Abba won the Eurovision Song Contest, such is the legend and hype of both Eurovision and Abba that every generation sings along to these memorable tunes with gusto and delight. The Brent Youth Pop Orchestra will be performing a medley of some of the best-known Eurovision, Abba and pop songs before our special guest officially opens the show. So please arrive early and join us for this celebratory, top-tapping show opener!
