Nº 14 – May 09

During this month we’d like to highlight two touristy and tango events that take place in our city and which we find especially recommendable. On one hand, the Metropolitan Tango Championship, which is held in different milongas of Buenos Aires. On the other hand, “La Gran Vía de Mayo” presents a variety of shows and guided visits of high cultural interest. For more details, we suggest you to read the newsletter below.

From April 30th to May 30th the 7^th Tango Dance Championship takes place in our city. The contest is divided in 3 categories, as last year: tango, milonga and vals. The competition is held in the milongas of the different neighborhoods.

For more information, see http://www.tangobuenosaires.gov.ar/campeonato09/web/es/index.html

This is the previous instance to the World Tango Championship, that will take place on August, together with the Tango Festival: http://www.festivaldetango.gob.ar/home/web/es/index.html
