El Rincón del Tango (Bariloche)

With its white stucco interior, El Rincón del Tango in Bariloche might make you feel like you are at a Mexican hacienda rather than a tango hall, but don’t let the décor fool you.  Tango dancing has happened here nearly every day since 2001.  Unlike many tango venues, El Rincón does not have a single, fixed tango show.  Instead, they have a series of visiting artists—dancers, singers, musicians—who travel around the country and around the world.  This can work for or against you since there may not be a performance the week you are in town.  However, if you are in Bariloche while a show is there, you are in luck—the traveling shows are fresh and energized.  Even without a show, the classes and the milonga can make for a memorable night after a day spent exploring the great outdoors.  Classes are held every day, as is the milonga which begins at 6.  If you go to a show or the milonga, don’t count on food service.  Instead, grab a meal before or after, depending on how Argentine you feel like being.  Then dance the night away!
