Nora's Tango Weekend Write-ups

Apparently Nora's Tango Weekend was, well, last weekend.

me_n_mr_t posted a write-up on his Livejournal:

The best part was dressing up for the milongas in suits, ties and nice shoes.  Saturday was 40's night and it looked like a gangster fest, I had a suit and hat but I've got to get more 'good-fella's' up for the next one.

The Tango Hours reports on day one and the Weekend as a whole.

Brussels Tango Marathon

There's an interesting write-up of the Tango Dance Regional Championship over on Universalis.

And there's some simply stunning photos of the event in a photoset by Peter Forret, including the image I've used to the left.

Tango 59° open for booking

Booking is now open for Tango 59°, a week-long tango festival in Stockholm.

The event, which runs from the 7th to the 12th of August, features 10 milongas, a range of teachers and plenty of after-hours parties.

There's more information at the festival website. Book before 1 May,
and you will get a 15% Early Bird reduction on everything that you
book, which sounds like a good deal to me, but then, I'm quite tight…
