Neo Nights
For over a decade, NEO NIGHTS has been bringing dancers from all over the world together – for music, connection, inspiration and unforgettable nights on the neotango dance floor.
NEO NIGHTS is one of the established neotango festivals in Europe.
From April 30 to May 2, 2027, we will return to Cinema Paradiso & Arte in Ludwigshafen (near Mannheim and Heidelberg).
We bring together an international line-up of artists and top-class teachers – a real celebration of neotango culture.
