Buenos Aires Milongas
There is something magical Buenos Aires’ milongas (tango halls), where dances are still requested with a quick raise of an eyebrow and a glance from him and accepted with a held gaze by her.
While the dance floor at some of the traditional milongas is off bounds to inexperienced dancers (go there to watch), others are more relaxed with many offering beginner’s classes, and also live orchestras. Each night Buenos Aires’ “Tangueros” decamp to a different milonga, so check out the info below to find out where to go, when.
Or, to take the hassle out of working out which milonga to go to on what night, consider taking a Private Milonga Tour, a fun window onto local tango culture.
