How much does a tango show cost in Buenos Aires?
Right now prices range from €35 to €232 per person. The cheapest tickets are show only; the most expensive include dinner and hotel transfer.
Should I book the show with dinner or just the show?
If it's your first tango night, dinner before the show saves you from looking for somewhere to eat and gets you a good table. If you've already eaten or want to spend less, the show on its own lasts between an hour and a quarter and two and a half hours, depending on the venue.
What time do the shows start?
Most evening shows start around 10 pm, with dinner from 8 or 8:30 pm. There are earlier shows too, like the one at Aljibe Tango. You'll see the exact time when you pick a date on Tiqets.
Do I need to dress formally?
No. There's generally no dress code; most people dress up a little but stay comfortable.
What if I need to cancel?
Change and cancellation terms depend on each show and are shown on Tiqets before you pay. Tiqets handles the booking and any refund.
