Helsinki Milonga Weekend 2016

Kolmas/The 3rd Helsinki Milonga Weekend!

As the autumn turns into winter, the days are dark and the most depressing month of the year is about to end, the Finnish tango community invites you to spend a warm weekend of lovely dancing with friends in Helsinki. Who cares what it's like outside? Come and share moments of joy with us - just when we need them the most!

The concept is simple but brilliant:
A series of milongas chained together with local (but still internationally renowned) DJs, no registration required.

Tangon iloa syksyn pimeimpiin iltoihin! Helsingin tangoyhteisö kutsuu kaikki El Aticoon viettämään lämmintä ja kodikasta tanssiviikonloppua säätä uhmaten.
Tapahtuma koostuu sarjasta milongoja, joissa soittavat paikalliset DJ:t. Ennakkoilmoittautumista ei tarvita.

As there is no registration required, we are not making any promises regarding leader/follower balance at the milongas.

Please make sure that you click "Going" here on the event if you are coming - we need to know how much food to prepare!

If you are a group of followers travelling together, we encourage you to use your charm and allure to bring some leaders along with you; everyone will be grateful!
