London Tango Weekends Events Details
4–6 September 2026
Three days of classes, three milongas and a friendly London tango community to become part of.
Your weekend at Tango Amistoso
Make Tango Amistoso your home base for a London weekend. Start with a welcome at Friday’s Milonga Maitrī, meet local dancers, then enjoy a full weekend of regular classes and social dancing.
Three nights, three personalities
Friday · Maitrī
Traditional · lively · sociable
Your welcome night: a traditional milonga with an easy Friday party atmosphere. Meet the Community Host, get introduced to local dancers and begin the weekend among familiar faces.
Saturday · Amistosa
Traditional · focused · experienced
Coming directly after the Advanced class, Amistosa tends to bring together many experienced dancers. Expect strong social dancing in a friendly, grounded atmosphere.
Sunday · Simpática
50% traditional · 50% modern & alternative
A different flavour to finish the weekend: traditional tango alongside modern and alternative music, preceded by Tango Unlimited.

Your Friday welcome
Tell us you are visiting London when you arrive at Maitrī. Our Community Host will welcome you and help introduce you to members of the local community. The idea is simple: by the time the weekend gets going, you should already recognise some faces.
And after the dancing?
Often the social side carries on informally — a drink after the milonga, food, brunch or lunch the next day, or groups making plans around London. These are spontaneous plans between dancers rather than official Tango Amistoso activities, so they are never guaranteed, but visitors who get to know the community often find themselves naturally included.
