The announcement came with a post on Instagram: «After many incredible years, we have decided to close Aqua's chapter as a live band. Aqua have been a very important part of our lives and together we have had the chance to live experiences we would never have dared to dream of. We have traveled the world countless times, met so many wonderful people, sang together with millions of you and shared memories that we will carry with us forever”, and then stated “when you are together for so long, you also learn when it is time to protect what you have created together”.
“Now seems like the right time to say goodbye,” they wrote, “while the memories are still alive and the love of music, history and each other remains intact.”
