Milonga de Gante 2

The second edition of the Milonga de Gante was again a success. Astrid and Koos gave a workshop before the milonga, DJ Nina (aka DJ Mala as she was known in Sofia) played some excellent tandas until 1AM and got lots of compliments in return. Ilse and Ludo can be proud of their event, it keeps Gent an interesting place to dance. (Note to self: take some red-light district pictures next time. Everybody loves red.)

Brussels Tango Festival forum: looking for a partner or a place to stay?

Brussels Tango Festival - LesBains (9)
We’ve just launched the Brussels Tango Festival forum, where visitors to the 2010 edition of the Brussels Tango Festival (1 Apr – 5 Apr) can post their questions:

  • “I’m looking for a tango partner, leader, advanced, for X and Y workshop.”
  • “I’m coming to Brussels for 3 days, could I stay at some tanguero/tanguera’s place?”

The festival starts in about 6 weeks, so this is a good time to start planning your lodging and your workshops. The updates on the forum will also appear on this site, and will be included in our weekly newsletter to almost 500 tango dancers.

For the Belgian tango dancers, if you want to practice your spanish or meet interesting people from all over the world, this is your chance to show off the famous Belgian hospitality!
