The Ultimate Dancing Queens

Overview

The Ultimate Dancing Queens are Scotland's ABBA tribute show, selling out performances since 2010. With costumes, harmonies and all the big hits, they bring the glamour of ABBA to parties, tribute nights, fundraisers and corporate events across Scotland, and they're available exclusively through Hireaband.

Real stage pedigree. The performers bring genuine musical theatre and touring experience to the show. They've appeared in productions including Mamma Mia! and Starlight Express, performed at the Globe and Horseshoe Theatres in Blackpool, and entertained audiences on cruise ships across Europe, South America and the Bahamas.

The show. The Ultimate Dancing Queens perform two 45-minute sets packed with ABBA's biggest hits, from Waterloo, SOS and Mamma Mia to Super Trouper, The Winner Takes It All and, of course, Dancing Queen. They're known for their audience interaction and for filling the dancefloor from the very first song. If you'd like to keep the party going, 80s and 90s covers can be added to the show.

Four-piece or duo. The act is flexible to suit different events and budgets. Choose the full four-piece ABBA experience, or a stripped-back duo for smaller venues and occasions. Instant quotes are based on the four-piece line-up, and smaller line-ups are available at a lower cost.

Where they've played. Recent Hireaband bookings include a tribute party night at Ranfurly Castle, a Christmas tribute night at Smith's Hotel at Gretna Green, afternoon tea entertainment at Seamill House Hotel, tribute nights at The Jolly Harvester in Dumfries and Carvick Webster Hall, a family-friendly festival in Castle Douglas, fundraisers at Maybole Town Hall and Our Lady's and St John's Parish Hall, and a birthday party at Seann Taigh in Aultnamain.

What's included. The Ultimate Dancing Queens provide their own PA system and stage lighting, and a complimentary playlist service keeps the music going whenever they're not performing live. They hold public liability insurance, use PAT-tested equipment and can work with venue sound limiters. Early arrival, a late finish after midnight and alternative timings can be arranged on request.

What clients say. Clients regularly mention the packed dancefloor, the audience interaction and how professional the performers are, with one festival organiser saying they were floor fillers "even though the rain was pouring".

Absolute pleasure to work with. So professional. Floor fillers even though the rain was pouring. Will definitely book again.

Hi Gaye,
I just wanted to feed back to you how our booking of the Ultimate Dancing Queens went.
We were absolutely delighted with every aspect of booking Lynsay’s act. The communication with her and yourself was excellent and their performance was first class. We had a Ladies Day with approx 80 ladies and they absolutely loved it. We had so many positive comments about the performance. They stayed and chatted with people after the act and tidied up promptly. We will definitely be looking to book them again in the future as they were popular.
Thanks again for a really easy experience in hiring this act.

Hi Lisa,
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and The Ultimate Dancing Queens for their incredible performance on 12th December at Smith’s Hotel. They were absolutely fantastic, and the feedback from our guests has been nothing short of amazing!
Wishing you a Merry Christmas, and I hope we can work together again in the New Year.

The Ultimate Dancing Queens had a great gig here last weekend, we would not hesitate to recommend :)

Hireaband have been exceptional. I have only started booking with them for my events at my restaurant and the service I have received has been brilliant. I would also recommend the ultimate dancing queens . They were fantastic, sang great, great performers and interacted fantastic with our guests! we will be re booking again for next year.

Great service from Hireaband booking acts to the delivery from the performers. Great audience interaction and dance floor was packed. All round brilliant

It was great to speak to you again today and can I emphasis again how fantastic The Ultimate Dancing Queens were onFriday.The show was exactly what we were hoping for and exceeded all expectations.. What a talented group of people they are and everyone who attended had brilliant evening. In addition the band members were such nice and charming people!
I must also thank you and Hireaband for your help and guidance and for making the booking process so easy. We will certainly be back to use your services again.

Hello Lisa,
Justin a note to thank you and the amazing girls on Saturday. They were superb top class a super show. Thank you so much.

My Dealings with Hireaband were what i would expect them to be. Very professional, easy to get on with and to be guided through the process as i have never booked a band before.
As for the band themselves? WOW, what a great bunch. So nice in person to get on with. Not demanding and they were so happy with what we provided. They were an absolute hit with our audience and we have been getting nothing but positive feedback since the performance. I wish i could have them back tomorrow. It makes a nice change to deal with professional and very pleasant easy-going people. The performance was amazing and interacted with the people in front of them that made the night.

I wanted to let you know that yesterday we had so nany people tell us what an amazing time they had on Saturday watching, dancing and singing along with you. You really went down better than we could have ever imagined. I really cannot thank you all enough as you madea special night unforgettable.
I very much meant what I said - if you're ever in the area please don't be strangers! Any public gigs we'd be along to support you (not that you need it!). Best wishes to you all.

Quite simply full marks for Hireaband and The Ultimate Dancing Queens.

Thanks again for a fabulous night at Ranfurly Castle.
It was, as always a great night’s entertainment. The dance floor was full from the first song.
I loved how you seamlessly went from a 70’s night first half to your well oiled ABBA tribute.
Looking forward to your return to the Castle
