Welcome asado dinner and queer tango with Nacho Bravo

Hours: 19:00 - 23:00

The Welcome Dinner – Traditional Argentine Asado is a warm and celebratory introduction to Buenos Aires, built around one of Argentina’s most iconic social rituals: the asado. Hosted in a relaxed, convivial setting, the dinner showcases classic Argentine barbecue cuts prepared slowly over the grill, including choripán, bife de chorizo, tira de asado, and mollejas, alongside seasonal vegetables and beloved staple dishes. The meal concludes with a traditional flan con dulce de leche, honoring the comforting flavors of local home-style desserts. As with any true asado, part of the magic lies in the unexpected—the chef’s spontaneous additions, special preparations, or off-menu surprises that reflect creativity, seasonality, and mood. These small twists make each gathering unique and unrepeatable. More than a meal, this dinner is about coming together around the fire: sharing stories, easing into the group dynamic, and experiencing Argentine hospitality at its most genuine. It’s a first night designed to feel less like a formal event and more like being welcomed into someone’s home.

North of the City with a Queer Twist

Hours: 10:00 - 17:00

Buenos Aires is a city built on layers — of power, beauty, resistance, and reinvention. This North of the City with a Queer Twist tour invites you to explore some of the capital’s most iconic landmarks while uncovering the stories that history books and traditional tours usually leave out. We begin in Recoleta Cemetery, where grand mausoleums tell stories not only of presidents and elites, but also of desire, secrecy, chosen families, and the rigid norms queer people had to navigate for generations. From there, we move through Retiro, a neighborhood shaped by migration, class divides, and informal queer networks that emerged in the shadows of official history. At the National Congress, we shift from hidden lives to public struggle, tracing Argentina’s path toward LGBTQ+ rights — from persecution and silence to landmark legislation and ongoing activism. Here, we explore how queer movements intersected with broader fights for democracy, labor rights, and social justice. The tour concludes with a visit to Mocha Celis, a groundbreaking trans-led organization and community space. More than a school, Mocha Celis is a living example of how queer communities in Argentina continue to create new models of education, dignity, and collective care in the face of exclusion. This tour is not about “queer trivia” — it’s about understanding Buenos Aires through the people who challenged norms, reshaped culture, and expanded the meaning of citizenship.

Led by Laurent TPK, a respected dancer and teacher known for their inclusive and thoughtful approach, the class welcomes participants of all genders, orientations, and experience levels. No partner is required. Instead of fixed roles, students are encouraged to explore both leading and following, discovering how tango works as a conversation rather than a hierarchy. The class focuses on core elements of Argentine tango — posture, embrace, walking, musicality, and connection — while creating a space where everyone can move comfortably and authentically. Whether this is your first tango experience or you’ve danced before, the emphasis is on curiosity, respect, and enjoyment, not performance or perfection. More than just a dance lesson, this experience offers insight into how tango continues to evolve in Buenos Aires today. It reflects the city’s living culture: rooted in tradition, shaped by migration and diversity, and constantly reinvented by new communities.
