16-18 May, 2025

About | Registration | Venue | DJs | Live Music

A weekend where embraces matter and stereotypes are optional.

Berlin has a flourishing queer & open role tango scene, including the milongas Atípica, MilongAMIGÅ, Tango zum Glück, Weibermilonga and the annual Queertango Festival. It also harbors a diverse tango scene in general, with 2 to 9 milongas every day of the week. We invite you here, to return or to arrive for the first time, and to share your tango with us.

El Contrapunto is a tango marathon for queer and open role dancers of varying levels of experience and diverse styles of dancing. We value a social, cheerful atmosphere as well as a respectful ronda.

Save the date!

Thanks so much to everyone who made our premiere in 2024 such a sparkling feast of embraces. Save the date for the next time!

Registration will start in January 2025.

Venue: Ballhaus Kuchus

We will publish the confirmed venue well before the registration starts. Here, you see the venue of our 2024 event. Will we meet here again? Let’s see!

Ballhaus Kuchus, also called Ahorn-Club, with its wooden floor will be home to our dancing feet. It’s a historic ballroom, built in 1908 and located in Berlin-Kreuzberg, close to the city center. The venue has been host to tango before, including a queer dancing school. We are immensely looking forward to welcoming you there!
