Buenos Aires: Madero Tango Show with Optional Dinner


About This Experience
Madero Tango stages the largest-cast production on this site — more than thirty performers with a live band — in a riverside hall in Puerto Madero, where the windows over the water are part of what you are paying for. It also carries the lowest starting price of any dinner house here, which makes it the natural first comparison for anyone working out what the dinner upgrade actually costs.
The dietary coverage is the standout. Madero Tango lists **vegan, low-sodium, vegetarian, children's and coeliac** menus — five distinct adaptations, more than any other venue on this site and more than most restaurants in the city will manage at short notice. If someone in your party has a requirement, this is the venue with the least to negotiate.
The tiering is straightforward once you see it. There is a **show-only** ticket, which includes nothing to drink. Above it sit two dinner grades: the **standard three-course menu** and the **VIP menu**, and — this is the useful part — **both include unlimited drinks**. You are not trading up from house wine to a better list; you are trading up on the food and the seat.
Seating is sold as named categories rather than chosen tables: dinner-show stalls, VIP seats with dinner and drinks, and Executive seats with dinner and drinks. Seats within a category cannot be picked, so the category is the lever.
The timing is the thing most people underestimate. Dinner service opens at **7:30pm** and the curtain is at **9:00pm**, which makes a dinner booking a three-to-four-hour evening finishing close to midnight. The show-only ticket is a much shorter proposition. Whichever you choose, the meal is served and cleared before the performance starts — you are not eating while the company works.

What Travelers Say
Rated 4.3/5 by 1,168 verified GetYourGuide travelers.
The show was very good. I found the tables very cramped and not very comfortable.

It was great We were a group of 18 from Italy and they welcomed us from the stage Very very good show

The best experience — the performers are so talented especially the singing of “Don’t cry for me, Argentina” (Evita). Very moving and emotional.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Madero Tango cater for vegans and coeliacs?
Yes, and more comprehensively than anywhere else on this site. Madero Tango lists vegan, low-sodium, vegetarian, children's and coeliac menus — five separate adaptations. Specify what you need when you book; the kitchen prepares in advance rather than on the night.
What is the difference between the standard and VIP dinner at Madero Tango?
Both include unlimited drinks, so the upgrade is not a drinks upgrade. The VIP menu is a better meal and sits in a distinct seating category closer to the stage, alongside a separate Executive category. Seats within any category are still assigned rather than chosen.
What time does dinner start at Madero Tango?
Dinner service starts at 7:30pm and the show starts at 9:00pm. A dinner booking therefore runs three to four hours in total, finishing close to midnight, while a show-only ticket is a far shorter evening.
Are drinks included with the Madero Tango show-only ticket?
No. Drinks come with the dinner options only, where they are unlimited on both the standard and VIP menus. The show-only ticket is the price of the seat alone.
Can I choose my seat at Madero Tango?
Not individually — seats cannot be chosen. What you can choose is the category: dinner-show stalls, VIP seats with dinner and drinks, or Executive seats with dinner and drinks. The category determines how close you sit.
