The next Tango Festival Berlin will take place from May 28th to June 1st 2009 - like every year on Whit Sunday. Due to the great success we decided to extend the festival by one day. You get the possibility to meet more Tango artists at the festival in Berlin. Already Friday you'll have the chance to attend workshops at our Tango specialists. Thursday will be the additional day with the opening milonga with live music. In addition to the workshops and shows of the dancers and musicans in 2009 there will be readings about Tango poesie and its history. The performing orchestras are Las Bordonas, Otros Aires, Beltango and Carlos Buono, Sexteto Milonguero, Stazo Mayor with Alfredo Marcucci and Alberto Podesta. The dancers Eugenia Parrilla y Pablo Inza, Gastón Torelli y Moira Castellano, Natalia Hills y Gabriel Misse, Maria Mondino y Ismael Ludman, and „ el Flaco Dany“ y Mecha Espinel will perform and teach.
