Urchasdonía: four neighborhoods, a single porteño heart

Urchasdonía 2021

This 5th edition of the Independent Tango Festival of Urchasdonía "brings the joy of meeting and sharing", says Marcelo Lavergatta, one of the organizers of the event. This year the festival generated a schedule of activities that displays the art and culture of its neighborhoods: book and mural presentations, a solidarity soccer match and the enhancement of the neighborhood square, a tango procession and a Sunday pic nic sprinkled with music and dance. Monday's closing is done with class and milonga. In two words, im perdible!

Urchasdonía unites four Buenos Aires neighborhoods - Urquiza, Parque Chas, Pueyrredón and Agronomía - in a single heart.
