A lot of people found the way to Humbeek for Gisela & Sergio’s yearly “Bal de Noël” or Christmas milonga. Sergio even mentioned that the people coming from Lille came by *bus*! Also lots of Dutch guests, and of course an abundance of Belgian tangueros. The venue was nicely decorated, the dancers were looking sharp […]

I found out that the best time to arrive at the Pianofabriek milonga is 17h. Plenty of space on the dancefloor, and the tables are there for the picking. Once it turns 19h, the place is packed. Dancing remained comfortable, for some reason, and so that’s what I did. Some pictures of the evening:

This weekend, Theresa had prepared us another of those rare pearls of tango bliss: the Dieweg milongas. Yes, the floor was slippery and yes, there were more dancers than ever, but that didn’t stop anyone from having a wonderful time.

La Luna had its last milonga this Saturday at Diksmuidelaan, Berchem, before Daniel & Lin move to their new location. It was a crowded, hot night and the floor was packed, thanks to DJ Ben and lots of liquids.

The Sunday milonga of the festival was in an equally impressive location: the Bourla theatre. The shape of the dancefloor was slightly unusual, and so was the choice of music. The maestros did a last performance all together.

The Saturday milonga of the Tiempo Argentino festival was in Antwerp’s Horta salon, a magnificent Art Nouveau building. It was the appropriate setting for the demos of the maestros: Marcela & Stefano Celine & Damian

Last Sunday was a Tangueria milonga with some special guests: Alex & Mimma from Rome. They started with a choreography they created for an opera and continued with some more fine tango. Their encore was a milonga that was really well appreciated, as you can see on the video below.
