About

La Madrugada Marathon&Festival

We are absolutely thrilled to announce the return of La Madrugada in 2025!
This year, we continue our mission to bring together talented dancers from across the globe, creating an event where your comfort, joy, and passion for tango come first.

We’re excited to welcome you to the breathtaking Binbirdirek Cistern, a 1700-year-old architectural wonder located in the heart of Istanbul’s historic peninsula. With its vast 3580 m² floor, 14-meter-high ceilings, and naturally cool, acoustically rich atmosphere, it offers a truly one-of-a-kind tango setting. Just a short walk from iconic landmarks like Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace, it invites you to dance in history itself.

And that’s not all: Eleven internationally acclaimed dance couples will grace us with their artistry and passion! They’ll not only dazzle us with mesmerizing performances but also join us on the dance floor, sharing their energy and talent with all our participants.

Don’t miss the highlight of the weekend: the ‘La Madrugada vs Social’ showcase during Sunday evening’s milonga, where maestros and maestras—selected through pre-applications from our cherished social dancers—will light up the stage.

The countdown to August 6–10, 2025 has already begun! Secure your place now and prepare to be part of an extraordinary tango experience.
We can’t wait to meet you under the stars and at dawn.

Warm regards,
The La Madrugada Team
