Tango 59° Stockholm City has a reputation of being one of the world's best tango festivals, featuring exceptional teachers, a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere and the possibility literally to dance around the clock, with ten milongas — and after-parties on top of that. If you are a tangoholic, this is the summer festival for you.

Social dancing is always at the very heart of Tango 59°. We pride ourselves on the flow on the dance floor, which many people have discovered is remarkably smooth and calm, yet dynamic and alert. Many of Europe's best dancers return to Stockholm each year to be a part of it.

We're also the only European festival at which the legendary Buenos Aires DJ Mario Orlando has ever agreed to play. We are very proud and extremely pleased to present Mario Orlando to the Tango 59° audience once again - his contribution to the living dynamic of the social dance floor is immense. This year, for the first time ever, Mario will conduct a DJ seminar to share those gems of knowledge garnered during decades of DJing in Buenos Aires. Don't miss it. It's really the opportunity of a life-time.

At Tango 59°, all package groups consist of a maximum of 12 couples - so that the teachers will have time to attend to you personally. This is very important if you really want to learn something. Also, our packages allow you to study with the same teachers during multiple sessions during the festival. And of course, you can choose which teachers you want to study with. It's entirely up to you.

We also offer workshops with all our teachers, should you want to study a particular aspect of tango that interests you. Even the workshop groups are smaller than at other festivals. A maximum of 15 couples per workshop allows direct student/teacher interaction.

Tango 59° Stockholm City International Festival 2009 will take place between Tuesday 28 July and Sunday 2 August.

Welcome to join us for a great festival of tango!
