“Tango Noir” milonga at Sidewalktango

Welcome to the night of  ”Tango Noir”

Every First and Third Friday of the Month

Starting 8.00pm and going through to late night….”Tango Noir” .

An intimate and stylish venue, with an authentic milonga:

Milonga:   A tango dance party……

In our over busy lives, with no time for the imagination, and no time for ourselves and others, we have ” the milonga”.  Yes, it is more than just a dance.    

There is something deeper: a motionless, fathomless, dark ocean of time.  A bittersweet nostalgia and awareness for the passing nature of all life and things.

Then  the “mythical, oft-mentioned, but indefinable experience of the tango embrace”. The passion, the “connection” and the special sense of a “secret inside”. 

Resonating with rhythm, melody, artistry, subtlety and touch.  Enraptured by the encounter, the pleasure, humour, respect and poetry.  An attraction, a curiosity, a pastime, a meditation, and deadly serious  good fun…

 ”Tango Noir” at  327 Swan St Richmond. 

  Fully Licensed Venue.

  Late night snacks available $5.00
