How to Choose a Tango Show in Buenos Aires?

Experiencing a tango show
is one of the most common activities in Buenos Aires, fun, flirtatious
and romantic allure, which is characteristic of Argentina in general,
but also because Buenos Aires is where the tango was born about 100 years ago.


Tango was recently recognized as intangible cultural heritage of humanity by the UNESCO which means that is considered a cultural expression of outstanding interest that should be preserved and diffused to assure the
protection of the world's heritage.The tango culture is a central part
of the Uruguayan and Argentinean culture,but Buenos Aires is considered
as the Capital of Tango, due not only to its size and importance on the Rio de la Plata region,
but also to the number of renowned tango artists that contributed to its
development and the importance of this rhythm in the construction of
the city identity.



While travelling through Buenos Aires you will see many exhibitions of street tango along with a vast range
of tango souvenirs, tango music stores, tango artists and tango
accessories on almost every street corner. However, the most important
tango experience that no traveler should miss out on, is a visit to a professional tango performance.
In Buenos Aires there is tango for everyone, from passionate lovers
to curious tourists, from young adventurers looking low budget tango
experiences to senior travelers expecting a more fancy artistic evening.
If you prefer more holistic experience you can choose a full program
of tango dinner show with tango lessons, or go for an only tango show if
you are not used to have dinner at the late Argentinean time.



There are also tango shows which incorporate samples of Buenos Aires folklore directed to those
looking for a broad picture of the musical culture of the country, or
tango exhibits that compile its history in few dancing acts for those
looking to learn in deep the development of this rhythm and its
adaptation to the modern times. So the final question is, what type of
tango audience are you?


When striving for perfection, every small detail counts. The same too applies for travelling. If you’re
going to spend one whole night at a tango show, not to mention spending quite a few dollars, of course you want the show to be aptly suited to your needs.


To ensure that both your tango experience and your vacation to Buenos Aires are thoroughly enjoyable,
here you will find simple guidelines based on our experience from our
fellow customers.


- If you are willing to try few steps of tango, opting for a tango dinner show with lessons will be both fun and fulfilling, then Complejo Tango and Sabor a Tango include tango dancing before the dinner.


- If you want to dismiss the lessons and what to send a night exploring
the evolution of the tango from its beginning to nowadays, then Complejo Tango without lessons is also an available plan.


- If learning the basics of tango is not in your plans and you want to experience a more romantic setting, places like Madero Tango and Carlos Gardel offer an idyllic and elegant atmosphere with a menu that is worth the price.


-If you are a creative person and want observe a modern version of tango, then either Madero Tango has a modern version of this art or Piazzolla Tango which recreates the famous Four Seasons piece written by Astor Piazzola, one of the biggest innovators of Tango, will offer you a contemporary and professional show.


-If you get bored easily and you need something more spectacular, with
innovative lighting, a unique stage, original music, and exclusive
performance, then Senor Tango is definitely the place to visit.


-If you are interested in spending an evening immersed in authentic
sample of local culture, surrounded by professional tango and the rhythm
of Argentinean folklore, then you should think about venues in
historical San Telmo such as El Viejo Almacen and La Ventana. Also Sabor a Tango offer an outstanding gaucho skills and folklore show.


- If you are a bohemian and you want a traditional, unpretentious tango experience, then El Querandi or Taconeando in San Telmo, or Esquina Homero Manzi in the neighbourhood of Boedo , will offer you a classic and romantic performance.


If after reading this article you still have no idea about which tango show you should attend, then take a look at our Best Sellers Category, to see what our customers prefer and what experiences they have enjoyed the most.

Don't forget that if you are on a low-budget vacation, and simply want to complete your “must-do” list, then selecting a tango show without the dinner will still be an enjoyable experience.


Finally, regardless of whether you are looking for a romantic evening, a family celebration with your children,
or just another fun night with your fellow travelers, the most
important thing is to enjoy a friendly place with good company and above
all to let the tango rhythm
, with its seductive characters, explosive movements and rich history
enter into your veins and conquer your heart - at least for one night!
