The DJs
Federico Suarez
Federico Suarez, born in Buenos Aires and grewn up in Germany. Since his first Tango steps he felt deeply in love with it‘s music. Since he also is a professional Tango dancer, as a TDJ he follows two simple rules: First, he plays for the dancers.; second, his songs need to touch him in some way emotionally. His tandas are either from the old maestros or from modern orchestras that play traditionally. When Federico is your DJ, the dancefloor will be full for sure!
Baki Vertiola
Baki is an internationally recognized tango DJ. With his positive energy he gives every milonga the shine of a party. When he hangs up, you just want to dance every tanda.
Whether rhythmic, dramatic or modern - sensitive interaction with the dancers and spontaneity are his recipe for success for a music selection that inspires. Tango mood guaranteed.

Munich
The beautiful bavarian state capital is worth a trip on its own. And on top of that we have a whole weekend full of tango, what more could you ask for!
The weather in Munich in May is (usually) spring-like, sunny and warm with temperatures around 21°C. However, you can also be unlucky... so we do not guarantee good weather.
If you have some time for sightseeing besides all the tango, be sure to check out the town hall ("new town hall") at Marienplatz, in the beautiful Gothic style. You should definitely see the famous carillon there!
