London Goes to Iasi, Romania - Whether you're looking for a weekend of quality dancing only or a full holiday, you should join us!

Join us for an amazing tango experience in Iasi, the charming second-largest city in Romania, from June 5th to 9th, 2025. This extra-friendly festival is organised by Silvia’s teachers, bringing together tango lovers from all over the world.

The Festival:
The festival will be a celebration of tango taking place in Iasi, a city that's as friendly as it is beautiful, and where Silvia herself calls home. The location of the hotel is just at the edge of the city, on the side of Lake Ciric, with beautiful views! Over four days, you’ll enjoy workshops from maestros such as Loukas Balokas and Georgia Priskou, attend stunning milongas, and see inspiring tango shows by Loukas and Georgia, our very own Winston and Silvia, and Horia and Ioana from Cluj-Napoca!

Romania Tour with Silvia:
To make the trip even better, join Silvia as your guide on a special tour of Bucharest between 2nd and 5th June. You will discover the vibrant capital, its culture and cuisine! Finally, we’ll arrive in Iasi just in time for the tango festival. It will be a great blend of culture, history, and, of course, tango!
