A Night of Argentine Tango
Location: ATOMIC Ballroom
Wednesday, March 26th, 2025
9:00 pm – 1:00 am,
Kick off the SoCal Tango Championship in style at Milonga Rouge, an unforgettable pre-party just minutes from the Hilton Irvine! Hosted by Lauren Woods & Shesha Marvin, this special night sets the stage for an incredible weekend of Tango, bringing together dancers from all over for a night of passion, elegance, and connection.
Featuring DJ Olga from Sicily, Italy!
We are thrilled to welcome DJ Olga Kyriakou, an internationally renowned tango DJ originally from Greece and now based in Sicily. With a deep love for traditional Argentine Tango, Olga brings the rich sounds of Athens, Catania, and Buenos Aires straight to the dance floor. A devoted milonguera and a true fanatic of “El Gordo” Troilo, she crafts tandas that capture the soul of tango—full of intensity, emotion, and tradition. Get ready to immerse yourself in the essence of Tango!
The perfect way to warm up before SCTC!
Join us for an evening of stunning music, elegant dancing, and an atmosphere filled with the passion of tango.
