Friday, 05 July 2024 : 21h00-05h00
One last weekend of traditional and neo tango in an exceptional venue, for some great encounters and wonderful abrazos! Two evenings with live orchestras, an unforgettable despedida, and two venues/two atmospheres all weekend long...
••• NEW VENUE •••
This year, for the evenings of the last weekend, we're moving to Mas Tolosa, a former farmhouse that's been charmingly renovated! Its superb rooms and large outdoor spaces have won us over, not to mention the coolness guaranteed by the top-notch air-conditioning!
Dancing traditional tango on a "parquet miel" for the comfort of our feet, travelling to other horizons in the neo room, stopping off at the stalls and food trucks, then lounging in the deckchairs set out on the lawn - that's what Mas Tolosa has to offer, and we can already see ourselves there!
••• TRADITIONAL TANGO (9pm > 3am)
• TRIO CAFETÍN
Trio Cafetín is a project that brings together three tango enthusiasts exploring a milonguero repertoire from the Río de La Plata region. Together, they shape a new sound for dance, discover new aesthetic paths and offer an energetic, refined and generous version of orchestral tango for three soloists. Maxime Point (Silbando, Silencio), Chloé Bousquet (Cuchicheo) and Chloë Pfeiffer (Silbando) perform regularly in France and abroad, sharing the stage with many artists from the world of tango and Argentine folklore.

• DJ Olivier Sastre
••• NEOTANGO (9 pm > 3am)
This year, for the final weekend of the festival, neo will have its own 200m2 venue for pure neo sound, over three days, and especially long nights!
More than fifteen DJs will be playing their music: the less exotic ones will come from Toulouse, Montpellier, Bordeaux and Pau, and others from a little further afield in France, from Paris, Lyon, Angers and Normandy, as well as a few internationals from Sweden, Czech Republic, Germany and even the United States. They're all volunteers, and they're here to give you a glimpse of what neo looks like at the moment in Europe, and in Toulouse in particular. Thanks and smiles are welcome in exchange for their music!
Depending on where you are in the evening, you might dance on the music of: Jaroslav, Alain, Élodie, Gabriel, Joëlle, Bo, Christophe, Pierre, Jean-Thierry, Sylvain, Raffaele, Laure, Lothar, Alison, Claude, Maryse, and of course Anna Neum and Phil!
••• AFTER (3am > 5am or more...)
From 3am:
• Néo room: neo after with DJ Anna Neum
• Main room: nuevo after with DJ Phil
After 4am:
Depending on the number of dancers still present in the two halls, we'll either keep the two neo/nuevo halls open, or we'll all meet up in the traditional hall for a late neo evening... let's see!
