Great location on the waterfront with sunsets and good weather. walking distance to one of the best restaurant districts in the city, and many nearby San Diego adventures to be had!  We have a great hotel deal for a downtown holiday weekend, just for you! And as always, great DJs and teachers to keep you dancing and learning all weekend long.

At SDTF we take our tango seriously, but not TOO seriously. We’re serious about great navigation, but we’re also serious about having a good time! We have all the things you expect from a tango festival: forgiving floor, great DJs and teachers and a smooth sound system with LOTS of hours of dancing. But it’s NEW YEARS and we believe in a great party! So there will be decorations and twinkle lights and balloons and New Year’s champagne because we think tango should be FUN too!

We provide a welcoming environment to enjoy social tango dancing in, within the line of dance, respecting the crowded dance floors with etiquette that we can all believe in. We want everyone to enjoy themselves and the best way to do that is to pay attention to some rules of the road! If we are all mindful of our fellow dancers we can ALL have a great time!
