ABBA fans were seen entering into a state of shock recently after being told they had to follow a dress code while arriving to watch the much-anticipated avatar show called ABBA Voyage.
Sources from local media outlets were quick to mention how the very popular disco wigs from that era would not be allowed as they have been deemed as culturally insensitive.
Fans were not happy with the news as many of them did associate with the stellar accessory for quite some time now. Others called it a staple of the 70s era when ABBA really made it big so they found it weird why this sudden lecture on culture-appropriate behavior and insensitivity was being given right now.
Hence, furious fans took to their accounts on social media to express their dismay on the matter.
Daily Mail was seen reporting more about the news on Sunday where they claim fans could no longer flaunt disco wigs in support of the happening group’s event.
“Afrostyle headpieces have nothing wrong with them. They are great for getting into the entire spirit of that era. I don’t get why a sudden ban on this is on the rise”- added another netizen and just like that, the matter continued to be elaborated upon.
In case you happen to be wondering more about the ABBA Voyage show, this has to do with a stunning display of hologram features matched against the hit group’s famous tracks.
All in all, it sets the stage for a very power-packed and fun performance where fans are given the chance to travel back to that year and sway away to some wonderful classics.
The news was published as a part of an email that was reportedly sent out to all ticket holders. It featured a statement in bold regarding how such wigs were not to be worn against a fancy dress as they’re just so offensive.
Therefore, anyone caught in the act would be asked to remove it or leave the arena.
