About the Basel Tango Marathon 2012
The Basel Tango Marathon is an annual event which brings together tango addicts from all over Europe for a weekend of non-stop tango mayhem.
It takes place in Gundeldinger Feld, a former machine factory now turned into an area of artistic workshops, dance studios and offices, located in Basel, Switzerland.
Due to the limited number of places and the overwhelming interest in the previous editions, the 2012 easyDancing edition of the Basel Tango Marathon will be "by invitation only". Detailed information about the event and the registration procedure will be sent to all invitees by email. (In your email, you will find a link like this to register with us.)
The organizers regret any disappointment this may cause and hope to find a way to make the marathon available to more dancers in the future while at the same time maintaining its high level, quality and charm.
Please notice that we do not send all invitations out at once, as we need some way to control the number of registering persons.
