Performances at events

A tango performance is a great way to add a special touch to your dinner party, wedding, family party, office party or charity event.

We dance the authentic Argentinean tango in the style of the 1940s, the era of the great tango orchestras – unique in Scotland.

Performance programs

We have developed three programs which capture the splendour of the tango:

• Authentic Argentinian Tango Program
  A taste of the three styles of authentic tango: Tango de Salon, Tango Vals and Milonga. [Read more and view photos]

We can also work with you to develop a custom program.

Authentic tango performances – to recorded music or with tango quartet Libertango

We perform to recorded music or, for the ultimate stylish touch, to live music with tango group Libertango (cello, violin, piano and sax).

Libertango is a group of Spanish and Scottish professional musicians. The repertoire covers authentic tango classics as well as works by the world-renowned tango composer Astor Piazzolla. We can work with you to create a custom program for your event.

Make your event even more memorable with a tango initiation for your guests (taster class). It's a guaranteed way to get the party going and will be remembered long after the event.

Theatrical tango performances

Our theatrical performances, tango with a touch of acting, have proven very popular with audiences, most recently at the West End Festival as opening and closing performance for the Bolshie fashion show.
