15-18 August 2024
We would like to invite once again our Tanguer@s friends and friends-to-be to the Silesian little Buenos – i.e. Pszow – between 15 and 18 August 2024.
This is the 3rd edition of the Locura Tanguera tango marathon. The name of the marathon is taken from the brilliant work of maestro Osvaldo Pugliese and is a perfect description of the event itself – it will be pure TANGO FRENZY. Both devotees of the Golden Era and nuevo lovers will find something for themselves – there will be traditional and alternative milongas. And the most distinctive feature of our marathon is …. tango danced in the fountains in the town market square at noon. Whoever has experienced it knows the thrill, and those who have not yet danced in water on a hot summer day should definitely experience it.
Organisers: Sylwia Kijewska (Silesia) and Piotr Kijewski (Sweden)
Our marathon has a hybrid formula – traditional tango compositions will be served by well-known and experienced admirers of tango classics, and nuevo-alternative music is to be shared by those open to new trends and challenges. You can choose just one package that suits your musical taste best, while tireless dancers looking for additional inspiration and experiences can go all in.
Locura Tanguera is an event for those who seek, above all, a friendly atmosphere in tango, where everyone will find their place and feel like they are in a truly loving home. For fans of diverse music, a perfect dance floor, excellent sound and lighting, good food. There will be coffee/tea corner, Silesian catering, a resting room, cloakroom/changing room, etc. amenities. Everything what is required for the comfort of the dancers.
Everyone is welcome, regardless of colour of anything or orientation, wearing LEDs and dreadlocks, dancing in stilettos and trainers, or even …. barefoot. With us you can be yourself. The Everyone is welcome, regardless of colour of anything or orientation, wearing LEDs and dreadlocks, dancing in stilettos and trainers, or even …. barefoot. With us you can be yourself. The only rules at Locura are tango codigos, empathy and respect for others.
If you’re still wondering whether it’s possible to find all this at once in such a small town, because it looks like a tango paradise and such things only exist in the realm of wishful thinking – ask those who have already been there, and come experience it with your own senses.
