The Wales International Tango Festival returns for a 2nd year!

After the success of last year we have added a third day on the Friday with a 2 room welcome milonga with Wayne Rozier of TangoFfS DJing the alternative room.

On Saturday there will be 2 sets of workshops catering for both beginners and intermediate/advanced dancers and there will be more Blues in the Program.

Urban Tango Nights will be joined by:
Nick Jones & Diana Cruz
Eduardo Bozzo of Tango Alchemy
Sian & Sue of Tango Alchemy
Island Dance Wizards

We also have live music on both Saturday and Sunday. Saturday is brought to you by Cabaret Tango playing their eclectic mix of music at our main Ball. On Sunday there will be a lecture from Mirek Salmon on Astor Piazolla and a chamber concert from Tango Calor, followed by music for the Milonga.
