Philadelphia Tango Festival - WHM
The 14th Philadelphia Tango Festival will take place Memorial Day Weekend, from Friday, May 22 through late night Monday, May 25. The event includes workshops, concerts, lectures, social dances with live music and dance performances, a cafe serving Argentine food, and vendors selling wonderful tango clothing & shoes. Truly, the event offers something for everyone. A Beginner Track of four progressive classes promises to get even first-timers out on the floor and dancing by the end of the festival! Offerings for non-dancers include concerts, lectures, Argentine food, and more. World Heritage Month is the perfect time to try out Argentine tango!
