-Some of our selection criteria are: friendliness, dance level, international diversity, ronda-awareness
-BTM is an event for advanced dancers. Please understand, that we will only accept dancers that have a certain level of experience. We also expect more registrations than we can accept, so we will not be able to accept all registrations!

After-Party on Monday

Posted on 23.10.2025

For those of you who can’t get enough Tango, we’ll keep on dancing until Monday evening! DJ Nick Shaforostov will keep us dancing until our feet fall off. Our venue is the Universo Tango, which is one of the oldest Milongas in Europe.
We are happy to have such an atmospheric place for our afterparty! The afterparty is open to the public and of course free for all marathon participants.

Thursday Pre-Party and program Information

Posted on 12.10.2025

It is time to give you some information about our marathon program. We will - of course! - have both a pre- and an afterparty! For the pre-party we will collaborate with TangoMATRIX. The Milonga is open for everybody, the entrance fee is included in the marathon pass. To ensure the best music, we will have everybodys favourite frenchman Thibault taking care of the music.
Coming early to Hamburg will be well worth it with our pre-party and the city tour on Friday afternoon!

It is also only 2 months left until we start with the registration process, so tell all of your favorite dancers about this event to make it the best it can be!
