Buenos Aires: Rojo Tango Show with Optional Dinner

About This Experience

Rojo Tango plays inside the five-star Faena Hotel in Puerto Madero, in a cabaret room refurbished by Philippe Starck and modelled on the old French cabarets of the last century. It seats a maximum of one hundred people, which puts it in a different category from the five-hundred-seat theatres elsewhere in the city, and the Rojo Tango Quintet Orchestra plays for dancers and singers regarded as among the best in the country.

It is by a wide margin the most expensive listing on this site, and the useful thing to understand is what that price is not hiding. At most venues here you compare a cheap headline ticket against a dinner upgrade and try to work out what the difference buys. At Rojo Tango there is essentially one tier, and it already contains the things that cost extra elsewhere.

**Drinks are included** — alcoholic and non-alcoholic both, listed as part of the price rather than attached to a menu grade. **Hotel pickup and drop-off by private vehicle are included**, which is true of no other listing on this site as standard; at Café de los Angelitos a transfer is not available at all, and at Señor Tango it comes only with the top menu.

The **three-course dinner is the optional part**: traditional Argentine cuisine with a selection of local wines and cocktails, served from 8:00pm ahead of a 9:30pm curtain. Since the drinks and the transfer are already in the base price, the dinner decision here is unusually clean — it is a decision about food and about ninety minutes of your evening, and nothing else.

The dress code is nominally smart casual, but the room and the price mean most guests have made an effort. Nobody is refused for underdressing; you will simply notice if you have.
