Byron Bay Tango Festival - 6 – 8 March 2026 NEWS!
1.This year the immersion class (Red pass) and workshops class (Blue pass) are filling up super-fast. The feedback I'm getting is that Andres' Molina and Natacha Lockwood are awesome and keen dancers like yourself don't want to miss out on their classes. Don't you miss out.
2. All passes, including for single follow/lead and milongas-only are now open. However more follow-only have booked, so we'll be halting this option very soon to allow lead-only bookings to catch up and maintain lead: follow balance. The message here is that leads may like to secure their place a little earlier this year. It will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
3. Did you know that numbers at the festival are limited to avoid overcrowded milongas? This festival provides a stress-free environment for learning and dancing.
4. Finally, the cost of passes are sooo.. reasonable and the Early Bird prices incredible for such an iconic festival in such a spectacular destination.
5. The festival is now organized by a team (myself, Sammi, Glen and Yulia) and "the team" is looking forward to your company.
Conrad
