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. In between dancing, I took some pictures of nice abrazos, concentrated dancing, deeply connected couples […]

The Tangueria welcomed some Argentinian visitors this Sunday: Gaby & Luis, who gave some classes first and of course performed during the milonga later that evening.

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.

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 […]

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 […]

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.
