To bring the Veranos de la Villa 2026 to a close, the open air auditorium in Enrique Tierno Galván Park will host this concert on 29 August, which will pay tribute to the timeless legacy of ABBA, reinventing its greatest hits through powerful arrangements for the orchestra and symphonic choir.
The melodies of the group’s unforgettable songs, such as Chiquitita or Dancing Queen, will be brought back to life in a majestic format in which the force of the symphonic merges with the freshness of the pop band that has joined the orchestra for this world première and latest production, created especially for Veranos de la Villa 2026.
The concert will be conducted by Raúl Benavent from Valencia, who has won the Reina Sofía Musical Composition Award and has already conducted other tributes with this ensemble, such as Freddie Mercury and Queen in last year’s edition.
The RTVE Symphony Orchestra and Choir (OCRTVE) fulfils the role of cultural promotion through its concerts, recordings and broadcasts on television, radio and digital platforms. Its repertoire ranges from symphonic tradition to contemporary music premières, working with prestigious conductors and international soloists. The OCRTVE is a reference on the Spanish music scene thanks to its artistic excellence, versatile performance and a commitment to cultural promotion.
