It promises to be a good party indeed, with participants visiting us from the whole of the UK and Europe, as well as further away places like Australia, Japan, Hawaii. At the heart of the Festival is the Summer Ball, a grand event featuring Sexteto Milonguero. Three evening milongas in our traditional hall and relaxed matinée tango cafés will fill your dancing weekend from Friday evening to the small hours of Tuesday morning. Each evening features a show from our star dancers while talented international DJs will keep your feet moving even after you thought you could dance no more. You can also enjoy over 20 workshops (from complete beginners right through to master classes) taught by international maestros. -- Edinburgh International Tango Festival 1st-4th June 2012 https://www.facebook.com/events/131817296910077/ http://eitf.org.uk/
