Tango in the Spring aims for social tango nirvana. Our milonga program is based around good traditional tango music from experienced DJs in a comfortable and attractive venue.

Seating

At the three evening milongas, all tables and seating are pre-allocated. We will try to accommodate people who have asked to sit together. Welcome volunteers will take you to your table. Feel free to move around as the night progresses, but we want to make sure everyone has their booked seat at their table when they arrive. Seating on Monday is unallocated.

Venue: Albert Hall

The historic Albert Hall will be the venue for the whole event. For the evening milongas, we are running a basic bar service with local wines by the glass. For the lunch, BYO.

Albert Hall: 100 Commonwealth Ave, Yarralumla

There is some parking in the streets immediately around the venue, and a lot more just on the other side of Commonwealth Avenue at “Langton Car Park”. There is a pedestrian underpass from there that comes out just near the venue.

Covid precautions

Let’s be responsible — please don't come to any event if you have Covid symptoms, or a positive test, or quarantine requirements. Let us know if you find out you may have been Covid positive at one of the events — we won't reveal your name, but we will warn people to be on the lookout. We have some increased hygiene systems. There will be hand sanitiser available. Some people may choose to wear masks, or limit their dance partners. Please respect their choices.
