Grazyna, Sam, Kelly & Eric
The four of us jumped on the tango band wagon at various moment of our lives in the last decade. We have been involved in the Victoria Tango community organizing regular tango events in the city. We’ve also traveled together on many inspiring tango adventures far and wide over the years. The plan for this marathon originaly hatched over ‘hypothetical’ conversations on the road to and from our favourite marathons. After an unfortunate first attempt that got interrupted by a global pandemic in 2020, our inaugural edition materialized in 2023. It was quite a ride but seeing the smiles and glee on everyone’s faces at 2am Monday morning as we were taking down the room was enough to make us realize that it would have to happen again. We are very excited to work together to share our love of tango and our charming island city with you one more time.
Inspiration and encouragement for this event has come from the many tango friends we’ve met during our tango adventures, as well from members of our very warm tango community right here in Victoria. Without this support we would not have had the guts to commit to making our dream into a reality. We appreciate all the support and encouragement and will work endlessly to make this an inspiring weekend to remember!
