Full description
Experience the golden age of tango in Buenos Aires with an exclusive evening at Tango Porteño combining a live show in the VIP section and VIP Menu dinner
Located just steps away from the iconic Obelisco in Buenos Aires, Tango Porteño majestically recreates the golden age of tango inside the historic building of a former Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer movie theater. The venue preserves a refined Art Deco architecture that transports guests back to the grand ballrooms of Buenos Aires where legendary orchestras led by Troilo, Pugliese, Piazzolla, D'Arienzo, Di Sarli, and Canaro once shone.
Enjoy a dazzling stage production from the VIP section featuring a live orchestra, vocalists, giant screens, and internationally renowned dancers performing colorful traditional tango numbers, a humorous stage tango act, and vibrant gaucho folk dance demonstrations. This experience includes the VIP Menu dinner with starters such as pink salmon tartare, creole empanadas, chickpea hummus with caponata, glazed onion cream soup, or prosciutto bruschetta. For the main course, choose between grilled sirloin steak, beef tenderloin tournedos in Malbec sauce, nut-crusted salmon, stuffed chicken roll, braised pork shoulder, octopus ink pasta with shrimp, or penne rigate with pomodoro sauce, finishing with gourmet desserts and included drinks featuring DV Catena wines, Bianchi Extra Brut sparkling wine, beer, soft drinks, water, coffee, tea, and petit fours.
