About this Event

🎉🌈 Queer Tango turns 25! In 2001, the first Queer Tango Festival took place in Hamburg - and the movement grew internationally from there. Twenty-five years later, we're celebrating- and bringing back our milonga, this time at Tangoloft. 📅 June 13, 2026 🎥 Film screening | 14:30–16:00 Disitango – un abrazo feminista (2025) – shown in Berlin for the first time! (Spanish with English subtitles) 💃 Milonga | 16:00–20:00 Followed by the traditional Tangoloft Milonga. 🤗 Hosts: Anna Chi & Maria August 🎧 DJ: Maria August (traditional tango) 📍 Tangoloft, Pfuelstraße 5, Berlin 🎟 €10 / USC + €5 🎬 Film screening: contribution at will 💥 Combo ticket with the evening milonga: €15 / USC + €10 💬 Special guests We've invited two queer dancers who were part of the scene in its early years: Astrid Weiske and Timm Christensen. They'll share some of their memories and experiences from the beginnings of Queer Tango, talking about the joy and the fight that made it possible. 🎥"Disitango - un abrazo feminista" is a documentary by Valérie Loewensberg (2025), shot mostly in Argentina. Tango has long been associated with machismo. Yet in recent years, feminism and the LGBTQIA+ movement have been reshaping tango, opening it up to new forms of expression and inclusion. The solemn charm of traditional tango now intertwines with androgynous bodies, and a new freedom emerges - creative, technical, but above all emotional, embracing the diversity and plurality of gender identities. 💜As always, we invite queer and double role dancers as well as everyone who enjoys dancing in a relaxed and joyful atmosphere to our milonga.
