We're up to the 11th annual tango festival "by dancers, for dancers",  
featuring top DJs, rewarding teachers, and the friendly Denver tango  
community.

This festival is designed for social dancers, not stage tango. What  
does that mean? Teacher "introductions", not performances, great  
national DJs, comfy dance floor designed for navigation, traditional  
Buenos Aires tandas, cabeceo and floorcraft. Most events centralized  
in the Denver Doubletree hotel (with free airport shuttle!). We'll  
have carpools to the off-site events on Thursday (Denver Turnverein),  
Friday (Mercury Cafe) and Sunday (Tango Colorado BBQ).

Please note one change this time: The Cheesman Park BBQ had to be  
moved to the historic Elitch Gardens in NW Denver because of  
renovation work at our usual Pavilion.

Due to navigation needs at the milongas, this festival doesn't work  
well for beginners, but the classes work for multi-level dancers:  
Intermediate through Advanced.


Book Hotel, Airline and Preregister Now.

Be sure to book your airlines and hotel reservations right away.  
Tuesday is often a good day to buy flights as the airlines tend to  
reset fares and match deals on Tuesdays. Pre-register at tango.org,  
where you can pay by credit card or mail in a check.
