Neighborhood Milongas

Neighborhood, or “barrio” milongas are the most imformal milongas, and you’ll usually find a lot less tourists at them. These milongas are great for experiencing more of the local Argentinian culture, and for feeling a deeper sense of community within Tango.

If you don’t speak Spanish don’t let that stop you from experiencing a neighborhood milonga if you feel to. Locals at these milongas are welcoming and supportive of visitors from abroad.
