Workshops & show
Duddie & Salomé
Two dancers, one shared language: this weekend Duddie & Salomé lead all four workshops of the festival.
On Saturday night they also present their show at the milonga in the Esquina del Tango.
From 4 to 6 December 2026 the Esquina del Tango in Erfurt becomes a stage for Tango Argentino for three days — with four workshops and a show by Duddie & Salomé, DJs at the decks and milongas into the early hours.

Workshop topics
- WS1 · The circular creativity methodA hands-on approach to new movement dynamics — for more creativity and a noticeably lighter embrace.
- WS2 · Tangology LightThe compact edition of Tangology, the first card game for tango dancers: a role play with musicality, instinct and awareness — tango experienced from changing perspectives, fresh impulses for improvisation and creativity.
- WS3 · EmbraceCommunication within the embrace, even without movement: from slow to fast, legato to staccato, linear to circular — leading and following with no delay between impulse and reaction.
- WS4 · Biagi & D’ArienzoA musical treasure chest full of rhythm, contrasts and creative impulses around two of the most formative orchestras of tango.

Esquina del Tango
Our festival takes place in the beautiful rooms of the Esquina del Tango — a place devoted entirely to tango. A large hall with old parquet, tall arched windows and a chandelier above the dance floor, plus a bar at the edge where people gather between tandas.
For three days this hall belongs to the festival: workshops by day, milongas at night. We are delighted to be guests here.
Esquina del Tango · Schlösserstraße 5 · 99084 Erfurt
Getting there: tram stop Am Anger (lines 1, 2, 3, 4, 6), about 10 minutes on foot from the main station. Parking: Borngasse or the Anger 1 car park.
