As we’ve already mentioned in past editions, our purpose through this newsletter is to inform about cultural activities (not just related to tango) that are taking place in Buenos Aires. There usually exists in a city an “official” touristy circuit, which presents commercial proposals oriented almost exclusively to foreigners, and parallel to this there appears another circuit, which we could call “independent”, where activities of less known artists – but equally worthy- take place. We believe that those who receive this newsletter are guided by an interest that transcends what is only touristy and they’re trying to find in Buenos Aires part of that essence that makes it so unique, so attractive. And many times going to these less commercial shows and exhibitions leads us not only to enjoy of a nice moment but also to get to know new and interesting spaces of this city. You will find throughout this edition a varied selection of cultural activities that will take place during the month of July, which we hope you like.

 


 

News

During July 1st and 4th the semi-finals of the VI Tango Metropolitan Championship will take place, and the final competence will be on July 6th. You can find all the details in order to attend to these important events in the tango agenda below.

For those who are planning their next trip to Buenos Aires, we inform you that finally the confirmed dates for the Tango Festival are from August 15th till the 24th. Also the World Tango Championship will take place from August 24th till September 1st. Both events are very interesting and totally justify a trip to our active city “porteña”.

Caserón Porteño’s Reopening

 

Caserón Porteño reopened its doors to our beloved guests from all over the world, not only with new painting, but also with some better equipped rooms and other improvements in the equipment in general. On the eve of the Tango Festival and the World Tango Championship that will be taking place during next August, we expect to receive you, with usual warmth and a little bit improved. So for those who’re interested in traveling to our city next month we’d suggest you to book with anticipation so as to avoid not having rooms available.

 

We hope to see you soon!

Cinthia & Daniel
