marathon
This year, we are including an unprecedented event in the history of tangotoistanbul within the festival’s scope. From March 7th to 10th, we will be hosting an OPEN-ROLE Tango marathon at the festival hotel’s Babylon Hall. Participants will be able to dance independently of gender-specific leader and follower roles. Our event will take place accompanied by the music of sought-after DJs of Open Role Marathons and the performances and lessons of maestros who embrace this concept. The meals served throughout the event will feature the finest examples of Turkish cuisine and vegan options. Additionally, there will be unlimited water, tea, coffee, and fruit service throughout the event.
