The World Tango Congress 2024 takes place at the CanDance Studios in Amsterdam, which is located at Isolatorweg, only 10 minutes from Schiphol airport.

Roots, developments and evolution of tango

Three different halls host two distinct categories of tango: traditional and neo-modern. The various specialised workshops include technique classes, couples tango, milonga and waltz, as well as yoga. There are even intensive classes with tango world champions. Dancers can also take part in other dance forms, like lindy hop, rock-and-roll, salsa and swing.

World Tango Congress is hosted by the World Tango Society, an ambitious and open network that respects the roots, developments and evolution of tango, aiming to make tango more attractive to wider audiences.

Expect specially-themed dance events during the congress! There are several points to note regarding dress code, so here are the details for looking the part: dress up like the flappers of the prohibition (or even a character from The Great Gatsby) for the Roaring 20s Dance, or get into folklore costume for the folklore event.
