Join us for 28+ hours of traditional tango music, warm embraces and cool sea breezes. Nonstop tango dancing with five outstanding DJs. From the first tanda on Friday to La Cumparsita on Sunday, you'll enjoy a carefully curated marathon designed for dancers who love classic tango music and a welcoming atmosphere.

The weekend begins with the Friday afternoon guerrilla tango gathering in beautiful Balboa Park before moving to La Vie Dance & Culture, our spacious, air-conditioned home venue featuring a large floating wooden floor.

And don't miss the unforgettable Sunday Bayside Milonga, where we take tango to the waterfront for an afternoon of dancing on the bay with TACOS. With abundant food and gourmet coffee at all the milongas with perfect San Diego weather, and five top-notch DJs, and you have all the ingredients for a marathon you'll remember long after the last tanda ends.
