The encuentro

Registration opens 7 January 2027, 9:30 PM

[Write 3–4 lines here: the spirit of the encuentro, who it is for, how many dancers, what makes it special. Example: three days devoted to social tango, with carefully chosen musicalizadores, a large wooden dance floor and a city to enjoy between tandas.]

What to see in central Bologna

The encuentro is in San Lazzaro, about 9 km from the centre, and the hotel is not perfectly connected to downtown. That is why we suggest a few relaxed stops, close to each other and without climbs, so you still have energy to dance in the afternoon. A guided visit is also planned for Saturday morning (programme to be confirmed).

Piazza Maggiore and around
To see

Piazza Maggiore and around

Piazza Maggiore, the Basilica of San Petronio and the Fountain of Neptune are a few steps from each other, all on the flat: perfect for an hour's stroll.

The Quadrilatero
To eat

The Quadrilatero

The lanes behind Piazza Maggiore, full of food shops and taverns: stop for tagliatelle al ragù, tortellini in broth or a plate of mortadella.

Santo Stefano and the porticoes
To experience

Santo Stefano and the porticoes

Piazza Santo Stefano, with its Seven Churches, and a walk under the porticoes, a UNESCO World Heritage site: quiet, intimate places.

Better to leave the climb up the Asinelli Tower or to the Sanctuary of San Luca for after the encuentro: they are very tiring. Allow plenty of time for the trip back to San Lazzaro and check transport times.
