A-ha in Cardiff review: The Norwegian trio open a series of castle gigs with a storming set

The sun doesn't always shine on Cardiff Castle, but it did for Norwegian trio A-ha as they rolled back the years to open a series of gigs in the grounds of the iconic setting.

Founded by Paul Waaktaar-Savoy, Magne Furuholmen, and Morten Harket, the Scandinavians rose to fame during the mid-1980s with hits like Take On Me and The Sun Always Shines on TV.

They are widely known as the most successful global pop music act to have emerged from Norway, and have kept a loyal fanbase over the years. So loyal, there were fans camping outside the castle gates more than seven hours before the start of the gig.
