Winter Tango Festival | Milongas

Four alluring and enchanting milongas at which you will be swept up onto the dancefloor by the bewitching DJed music and captivated by the live orchestra music. We have selected DJs who have the expertise to excite even the most seasoned tango dancers. At our Gala Nocturne Milonga, we are delighted to present the milonga debut of the renewed Brisbane Tango Orchestra. We are proud to facilitate the creation of this local eight-piece tango orchestra for the enjoyment of both dancers and music-lovers. We will be inspired by tango performances by our interstate teachers, Rina and Nadim (Friday & Saturday) & Jose and May (Friday).  The Sunday Afternoon Milonga continues with DJ Anthony and allows for a more relaxed embrace as the sun sets. Step out into the evening for short stroll or quick change into your party clothes and then head back to City Hall for our celebratory After Party milonga! Featuring DJ Wendy and live music from the Eddie Gazani Tango Quartet - you will never want to leave!
