Friends, Fjord & Tango is a celebration of freedom, connection, and dancing on your own terms.
We come together in Oslo to share laughter, connect over delicious meals, and enjoy a special trip to Gressholmen island—all while dancing in a space that celebrates openness, creativity, and community.
Expect bold and inspiring DJs from the Scandinavian scene, and an atmosphere where everyone is welcome.
Open, creative, and proudly non-traditional—this is tango for the alternative community. Join us.
Look forward to day- and evening milongas, a live orchestra and the Sunday dance and lunch on the island Gressholmen, with classical tango records on retro gramophone.
If you love dancing both roles with anyone, just being yourself, this is the place for you. New friends guaranteed!
