Experience the First Ever Open Role Tango Festival in the USA!
Get ready for a one-of-a-kind tango celebration where the stars are not the performers or instructors- YOU are the star!

The Open Role Tango Festival is more than just classes and milongas—it is a space for connection, discovery, and expression.

Whether you are a beginner or experienced dancer, no matter your background, style, or gender, this event invites you to explore both roles in tango, opening up new ways to connect through movement and music. Through workshops, lectures, guided practices, and social dancing, we will explore the essence of Argentine Tango—not as a rigid tradition, but as a living language that unites people.

Expect:

• Inspiring classes to understand how each role works.

• Practice sessions and discussions

• Milongas

• Performances

• And many surprises!

But above all, expect a welcoming community and the chance to express yourself freely, communicate deeply, and connect with others through the power of tango.

Let’s go beyond stereotypes and styles—let’s dance to share, to understand, and to build bridges. This festival honors the true spirit of Argentine Tango: bringing human beings together through the universal language of the embrace.
