Tokyo Milonga: The concept

Many overseas milongas are relaxed, inexpensive events. People go to dance tango and have a good time. Entry is usually no more than 1,000 yen. We started Tokyo Milonga, because we felt there was a need for something similar in Tokyo.

There are no dazzling demos, gourmet meals, or live music performances at Tokyo Milonga. Instead, we offer a low-cost milonga in a stylish downtown location. Instead of a full-course dinner, as it were, Tokyo Milonga is your local diner.

It is the people who make all the difference to a milonga. Irresponsible as it may sound, it is the support of tangueros and tangueras that makes a milonga thrive and prosper, not the organizer. We named our event Tokyo Milonga with the ambitious goal of creating a simple, lively, and relaxed dance like many overseas milongas – a social event that attracts the typical, sophisticated Tokyoite.
