Ireland
For fans of Argentine Tango, Dublin has a thriving Tango scene with milongas (social dances) and classes on every night of the week. Many of the classes are taught by native Argentine teachers. The great thing about Tango in Dublin is that all the Tango events are accessible on foot from the city centre. Some of the venues have a great Tango atmosphere. Particularly recommended are the Castle Inn Pub and Wynn's Hotel. Unlike some cities, you don't need a partner to take classes. The Dublin Tango community is very cosmopolitan with regulars who come from all over Europe. Things are quieter in January as many of the Argentine teachers go home for the winter months but the full schedule of events should be back up by February. Those that are away usually arrange for a senior students to fill in for them. Prices of classes and milongas range from 6.50 to 10 Euros.
