Snow Tango World Championship 2023

What comes to Your mind when You hear the word ‘tango’? A dark, warm night, light dresses, sweating bodies, high heels... True, but this is so last season!

A Finnish dancing club Hurmio brings us a totally new way of enjoying this traditional dance: in bright daylight, among the frosty snow and with warm clothes and shoes. But still treasuring the deepest soul of the tango; passion, connection between dancing partners, long steps, smooth yet strong movements - all of these emotions expressed according to the temperamental tango music in the centre of Tampere. In the Snow Tango World Championship event the heat comes from inside!

The surroundings might be unusual but the performances of the dancing partners are evaluated in a traditional and professional way. There is a judging panel of five persons and after the preliminary rounds, semifinals and finals there will be a successful couple who will win the title Snow Tango World Championship. This is surely a title which is not owned by everyone! The first prize reflects the character of the competition: a sparkly piece of crystal.

If you would like the chance to win this unique title or if you just want to enjoy the atmosphere and warm yourself by watching these skilled and brave dancers make your way to Tampere, Keskustori, on 4th February, 2023 at 12:00 – 3:00 pm. The audience can also use their influence by voting for the best outfit of the dancing couples.

During the event the audience can see and hear a solist which will be announced later on.

Dancing is a way of life and tango is a fascinating part of it. We welcome you to see, feel and experience the ecstasy of this dance – if you get hooked we know the cure!
