ABBA Girls Light Up Reeth Memorial Hall – A Night of Disco, Harmony and Pure Joy
There’s something about an ABBA tribute night that just brings people together — and last night at Reeth Memorial Hall was no exception. As soon as the ABBA Girls took to the stage in their signature satin costumes and platform-ready attitude, it was clear we were in for a memorable evening.
From the opening chords of Dancing Queen to the final encore of Waterloo, the crowd was hooked. The atmosphere was electric — people singing along, clapping in time, and yes, even a bit of impromptu dancing in the aisles. The band brought all the fun, sparkle and vocal firepower you’d hope for from an ABBA tribute act, but with a warmth and energy that felt entirely their own.
Photographing live performances is always a bit of a balancing act — low lighting, fast movement, and unpredictable stage dynamics can make it a real challenge. But with this show, the colour and energy did most of the heavy lifting. The lighting bounced beautifully off the satin costumes, casting a kaleidoscope of purples, blues, and greens across the stage — a gift for the camera, frankly. Each frame captured not just the performers in motion, but the atmosphere of the night: bold, vibrant, and full of life.
The vocal chemistry between the two lead singers was particularly strong — harmonies tight, timing spot-on, and stage presence full of charisma and fun. The band behind them kept things driving forward with all the polish of seasoned pros. From Mamma Mia to Super Trouper, every track landed, and the audience responded in kind.
What I loved most was seeing such a joyful evening unfold in a place as small and tightly-knit as Reeth. The Memorial Hall may be compact, but it punches well above its weight when it comes to community spirit — and last night, that spirit was turned up to eleven. Nights like this remind me why I love doing what I do: capturing the energy, the people, and the fleeting magic of live performance.
A huge thanks to the ABBA Girls for bringing the glitter and good vibes, and to everyone at Reeth Memorial Hall for hosting another cracking evening of live music in the Dales.
You can see a selection of the images from the night below. If you were there, I hope they bring back a bit of the joy. If you weren’t — maybe I’ve convinced you not to miss the next one.
