Mountain Milonga Retreat 2018 will take place on August 3-5 2018 at the traditional location at the historic Wasatch Mountain Lodge at Brighton Ski Resort, Utah. Registration for new guests opens on Thursday May 3 at 9 pm Mountain Time!
More about registration: as it happens in the years past, the first 48 hours of registration were restricted to "the alumni class", the passholders of the earlier Wasatch tango events including both Mountain Milonga and SLTF. Keep in mind that in recent years, Mountain Milonga sells out in mere days. Update: registration is CLOSED, the event is sold out, waiting list is available.
Mountain Milonga Retreat is a unique tango adventure in a rustic 1929 ski lodge at 9,000 ft elevation up in Utah’s Wasatch Mountain Range (yet only 45 minutes from the Salt Lake City airport). The tradition began 16 years ago as a signature summer celebration of the local tango community. Great floor, great vibe, and mindblowing asado. Over the years, the “M2”, as it is affectionately known, grew into a 3-day retreat combining a good deal of a tango marathon, a bit of a workshop, and a lot of a communion of tango friends.
We will feature a beautiful constellation of regional teaching and DJing talent, including Grisha Nisnevich, Tommy Smith and Christian Wheelihan, John Miller and Jesica Cutler, Patricia Becker, Jamie-Lynn Figure, Serena Lembach, Patrick Marsolek, and more; Nathan Earley will provide on-site massages; and (by popular request) a traditional all-volunteer kitchen crew. (Learn more about our team!) And yes, we are still signing up part-time volunteers. Being a part-timer volunteer takes only 3 shifts of 3 hours or less, and it is both a great experience and a solid value, coming with a $70 pass discount + a $60 lodging discount.
Always remember that it isn't your usual city-based tango event! We'd like to remind you that the Mountain Milonga FAQ page is always important to read and re-read, and to suggest updates and additions as necessary.
MMR-2018 Facebook Event page is another great way to get in touch with Mountain Milonga people and to share tips and questions and excitement!
Draft schedule has been posted.
The Mystic Milonga afterparty is scheduled for Monday-Tuesday Aug 6-7th.
For the craziest dancers for whom even a 5 days and nights of Tango, Nature and Friendship leaves them wishing for more, please keep in mind that there is also a first of kind locally based Encuentro on the weekend right after the retreat (contact Olivia Leavitt or check their website for more information)
