Dear friends, we have exciting news!

To make the most of Byron Bay’s stunning weather, the Tango Festival has been moved to March — the perfect time to dance and to take advantage of the sunny skies and starry nights. Now you can plan ahead for this and future festivals with ease! We’re also thrilled to announce our world-class maestros for 2026: the incredible Andrés Molina and Natacha Lockwood. Get ready for an unforgettable tango experience!. Find a partner asap and book early!!

The program format follows familiar paths, with daytime immersion workshops and continuous dancing for others; evening milongas in the spectacular main auditorium with state-of-the-art sound; a plethora of great DJs and live music. And much more…

Finally.... I am excited to announce that the BBTF is now officially co-ordinated and organised by a team. Yes! After 25+years (I've lost count) of a reliance on various generous helpers and consistent technical support from my dear friend Mike French, there are now four of us - myself, Sammi, Yulia and Glenn. You'll meet them at the festival.

                   So....from the team.....Looking forward to sharing another memorable festival!
