El Beso

Buenos Aires


This small, intimate dance salon hosts various different milongas (tango nights) and offers tango classes every day of the week. If you're new to the tango scene, consider attending a class and sticking around for the milonga afterward. The most popular event is Milonga Cachirulo on Tuesday nights. Check the website for the full schedule.
