Tango Festival & World Championships

It’s not only sports that get to have a world championship – Tango gets in on the action too. If you’ve been in Buenos Aires these last few days you won’t have missed the signs telling you that August is Tango, and given the grey, miserable weather, why not head indoors and enjoy the warmth and heat generated by the world’s finest tango dancers.

Full details of the dances and concerts can be found on the Buenos Aires Festivals site (in English & Spanish) but suffice to say there is something going on every day.

All events are free and With the exception of events taking place in the Teatro CCC and the Semis and Finals, no advance tickets are needed, simply turn up in plenty of time to get a seat. Tickets for the last 2 rounds can be picked up (2 per person) on the 22nd August between 11am and 7pm at the Casa de Cultura, Avenida de Mayo 575.
