Dear El Gordo family,
We are happy to invite you back to the historic mansion at Foksal 2. It is a beautiful space in the heart of Warsaw with high ceilings, large windows, and a perfect natural wooden floor.
This year, we’ve made a conscious decision for your comfort. To ensure more space and freedom on the dance floor, we are limiting registration to only 220 places.
The details:
Space: Up to 40 hours of dancing in a unique venue with a private park reserved exclusively for our guests.
Location: A lively, central neighborhood filled with charming restaurants and cafes.
Stay: Plenty of lovely hotels and apartments nearby. Warsaw taxis are very affordable, so staying a bit further out is always an easy option.
No-bar system: We are keeping the "no-bar" approach. You are welcome to bring your own drinks — we will provide the fridge, ice, and glasses.
On the house: The marathon pass is 150 EUR. Water, fresh fruits, vegetables, and those famous cookies from our favorite Lithuanian home bakery will be available for you throughout the event.
Role balance: As always, we maintain a strict balance between leaders and followers and appreciate high dancing standards. Most importantly, we value the warm and friendly atmosphere you bring to the floor.
Registration opens on April 22 at 2PM Warsaw time.
Stay tuned for the DJ lineup - we have some cool names in store!
Un abrazo fuerte,
The El Gordo Tango Marathon Team
Audrius and Olga

The event is set to take place in the heart of Warsaw at Foksal Street 2 from October 9th to 11th, 2026.
The central area is lively and vibrant, yet it maintains a cozy atmosphere with numerous beautiful places to explore, along with charming restaurants and bars.
The concept here differs from Riga. The venue isn't within a hotel; but there are many lovely apartments and hotels in the surrounding area. Also, keep in mind that the taxi industry is very affordable, so don't hesitate to consider renting a room farther away.
