Tango Festival
Tango Festival
Dance performances are the centerpiece of the festival, which is popular among natives as well as tourists. Typically, on the last Friday of February a performance at La Selección Nacional de Tango will launch the festival; then, for the next nine days events are held at multiple locations, including concert halls, clubs, and barrios.
The festival does not restrict itself to dance performances, however. Past festivals have featured original musical pieces performed by musical troupes from neighboring countries as well as from Europe. There are also photo exhibits, classes, and a trade fair offering tango records, books, and clothing and accessories.
