Last Tango in Brussels @ Tangueria

The milonga at La Tangueria this weekend had a kind of a special event: it was the Dirk’s last Belgian milonga before he left for Buenos Aires. He go to show off and kissed a lot of women, so he was beaming. We wish him great times in Argentina and hope he starts writing soon […]

Photos: milonga @ Pianofabriek, Oct 2008

One of the milongas we missed during the summer months is Sergio & Gisela’s milonga at the Pianofabriek. So we were happy to go there again on Sunday. The Pianofabriek has been renovated, the actual tango venue was lightly larger, but luckily as hot as ever and with the same solid pilars in the middle […]

Photos: Nuit Blanche @ Vaudeville

Last Saturday was also Brussels’ yearly Nuit Blanche. For us tango lovers, this meant a milonga at the Vaudeville, our favourite venue from previous Brussels Tango Festivals. Peculiar about this night was that there were almost more spectators than dancers. And that it stopped at 1AM.

This was a busy weekend. On Saturday Nosotros, in collaboration with Bouche-à-Oreille, had organized a milonga with a little extra: a concert by the Quilombo quintet. Five young musicians from Antwerp played Piazolla-style tango with pinch of modern influences (Nirvana comes to mind). Pictures of Quilombo

It was the last edition of this season, and what an edition it was. The one with the best weather, the most dancers, the most smiles and the most surprises for Dirk. He got lots of people showing up in his tango-battle-colours red & black, he got to hand out roses to his partners, he […]

Photos: Milonga @ Kiosk #5

Weather wasn’t that bad, but expectation of rain did prevent a bunch of people of coming. The others had a sweater, a scarf and lots of space for dancing. And no, it did not rain once. Next Kiosque on Sept 27 is the last one for this year, so don’t miss it! All pictures in […]

Maryline & Vincent gave a workshop this weekend in Hermalle-sous-Huy, organized by the Cultural Center of Engis, for the Dance Convention. Afterwards, there was a short afternoon milonga, and they gave a demonstration. Since Vincent will be concentrating on non-tango activities for a while, it was certainly a special occasion. Some impressions:

Photos: Milonga @ Kiosque #4

We had to start late with the Kiosque milonga because they were still setting up an impressive set of lights for an event later that evening, but on the positive side: we had an impressive set of lights that brightened up the end of the milonga. It was a warm, pleasant day, the place was […]

Belgians abroad: Vieille Bourse @ Lille

In Lille they also have an open-air milonga, only; the top is open and not the sides. When it gets rainy, this makes for a wet experience. But that doesn’t stop the locals and quite a crowd of Belgian dancers to come to the Vieille Bourse (organised by Sous Les Marronniers), since it is quite […]

Photos: Milonga @ Kiosque #1

We held our fingers crossed for most of the week and it paid off: there was only a little rain at the first Milonga @ Kiosque this Saturday in the Brussels park. The dancers, on the other hand, were numerous. The first one dropped in just after 5PM and the milonga only stopped because we […]

Photos: Milonga @ Jardins du Dieweg

Milongas at Dieweg are nice, but sunny milongas at Dieweg are even nicer. This Sunday was a very sunny milonga. DJ Ben was in great shape and even I got to dance more than I took pictures.

Upcoming: Milongas at the Kiosque du Parc

We’re happy to announce that this year, for the fifth year in a row, there will be two-weekly milongas in the summer at the Kiosque in the Parc Royal in Brussels. Olivier Noterman, who started the initiative, and who has now moved to Buenos Aires, has asked Dirk and me to keep the tradition going.
