About this tour

Tango Dinner Show at El Viejo Almacén with Transfers and Gourmet Menu

I experienced an unforgettable evening at El Viejo Almacén , one of Buenos Aires' most traditional and renowned tango venues. This experience combines the best of Argentine tango with a three-course gourmet dinner , select wines, and a top-notch live show .

The evening begins with a transfer from your hotel to this historic venue located in the heart of San Telmo. Housed in a building dating back to the late 18th century, El Viejo Almacén retains its original essence and has been a meeting point for great figures of tango for over 50 years.

Upon arrival, you'll enjoy a delicious dinner in an elegant dining room , with the option of choosing between a traditional menu or a VIP option featuring more sophisticated dishes. All accompanied by outstanding Argentine wines that enhance every flavor.

After dinner, the experience continues by crossing the classic Balcarce street towards an intimate theater , where the show takes place.

The show begins with a brief introduction to the history of tango and leads into an exciting presentation that includes:

  • A live orchestral sextet
  • Four pairs of professional dancers
  • Renowned singers like Hugo Marcel

The proximity of the stage, the acoustics of the place and the colonial charm create a unique atmosphere that will envelop you from the first moment.

At the end of the show, we'll take you back to your hotel, concluding a perfect night to discover the essence of tango in Buenos Aires.

Réserve de l'ancien entrepôt

Je voulais réserver le dîner-spectacle dans l'ancien entrepôt et, grâce aux recommandations de l'agence de Marco, j'ai pu prendre la décision et choisir l'ancien entrepôt surtout à cause de son histoire. C'était inoubliable, du spectacle traditionnel aux danseurs. Tango du meilleur!
