Catulo Tango
Dr. Tomás Manuel de Anchorena 647, Buenos Aires, The Pampas, C1170 ACK
An atmospheric tango venue in the heart of tango legend Carlos Gardel’s neighborhood, Catulo Tango treats guests to an intimate tango experience. With 10 costumed dancers taking to the stage, accompanied by live musicians and tango singers—the performance is a fitting tribute to the city’s tango legacy.

To experience Catulo Tango, it's possible to attend just the show only or to book dinner and the show together, which includes three courses of traditional Argentine cuisine and wine. Tickets for the dinner show generally include round-trip transfers from Buenos Aires hotels.
Things to Know Before You Go
There is no dress code for the evening tango shows, but most guests wear smart-casual attire.
Performances at Catulo Tango last about 75 minutes.
The venue is wheelchair accessible.
How to Get to There
Catulo Tango is located in the Abasto neighborhood, just west of downtown Buenos Aires. The closest metro (subte) stations are Corrientes (Line H) and Pueyrredón (Line B), both just a 5-minute walk away.
When to Get There
Tango shows are held nightly year-round and typically start late (after 9pm), so it’s worth opting for a tour that includes hotel pickup and drop-off.
Exploring the Abasto Neighborhood of Buenos Aires
The under-the-radar Abasto neighborhood is a lively meeting spot forPorteños or local residents, with many cafes, bars, and music venues.
