Welcome to the 7th HELSINKI MILONGA WEEKEND after a few skipped years!What happens after the splendour of Northern autumn colours has faded?
Goodbye red-and-gold foliage, goodbye daylight...
Welcome November, the ugliest month of the year!
We're not afraid of you, not anymore, because we have the perfect antidote: the Helsinki Milonga Weekend!
As the autumn turns into winter, the Finnish tango community invites you to spend a warm weekend of lovely dancing with friends in Helsinki. Who cares what it's like outside? Come and share moments of joy with us - just when we need them the most!
The concept is simple but brilliant:
A series of milongas chained together with local but well-known DJs, no registration required.
Here is some useful practical information:
