Orvieto Tango Encuentro
Milongas and Argentine tango in the heart of Orvieto, amidst the Christmas lights
About Orvieto Tango Encuentro
Argentine Tango on Umbria's Cliff
The Orvieto Tango Encuentro is the event that brings Argentine tango to Orvieto, in the Province of Terni, choosing the evocative Palazzo del Capitano del Popolo as its setting. An "encuentro" – literally "encounter" – designed for tango enthusiasts who gather to dance, share milongas, and perform in one of central Italy's most fascinating medieval cities.
Milongas During the Most Magical Time of Year
The event takes place in the heart of winter, during the Christmas period, when Orvieto's historic center lights up and fills with initiatives. Dance thus becomes part of a broader experience, combining culture, tradition, and conviviality within the walls of the Palazzo del Capitano del Popolo.
Part of "A Natale regalati Orvieto"
The Orvieto Tango Encuentro is included in the "A Natale regalati Orvieto" program, the Christmas festival that enlivens the city between late November and Epiphany. A proposal that enriches the winter offerings of the Municipality of Orvieto and attracts dancers and visitors from all over Italy.
