Dear Tango Friends: We are less than four weeks from the beginning of the THIRD ATLANTA TANGO FESTIVAL, that will take place in beautiful downtown Decatur March 29th-April 1st 2007.
Registration is in full swing, but we still have room in the workshops and milongas for all of you that did not register yet. So far we have dancers from San Diego to Boston and from Miami to Seattle, including some of your favorite teachers (the list will be too long to include them all). As, please visit the festival webpage for the last updates (www.atlantatangofestival.com) These are the last news about this great event: - Hotel update - Teachers Training Network - Deadline for complimentary T-shirts - Final DJ line up HOTEL UPDATE All the events will take place at Holiday Inn Select in downtown Decatur. The hotel is SOLD OUT for the days of the festival (we are already taking 75% of the total rooms at the hotel). We are working on releasing some more rooms and use them for the festival, but we recommend you to make a reservation at any of the hotels nearby (we are starting a waiting list).
