Intensive Tango Golden Years is a dance performance that takes you into a world where tango meets jazz. It leads the audience into the golden age of music and dance, from Buenos Aires to Harlem and from the 1920s to the 1930s. Led by world-renowned tango visionary Marcos Ayala, the show is filled with elegance, passion, the power of love, and freedom.

Tango Golden Years is a vibrant musical and choreographic journey through swing, big bands, clubs, tango songs, and milonga. It is a world of light and shadow, where dance becomes history, memories come alive with every step, and rhythm echoes as the sound of freedom.

Although the performance is rooted in tango’s traditions, it also speaks to the present day. It highlights the power of art to unite cultures, break down barriers, and transform pain into beauty.

Marcos Ayala Dance Company is an Argentine dance company founded by Marcos Ayala in 2010. For years, the company has toured the world to sold-out audiences.

The company will be seen in Helsinki at the Savoy Theatre on April 16, 2026.

Marcos Ayala is a dancer, choreographer, and director who has studied folk dances, classical and modern techniques, jazz, and of course tango from an early age. He has won several international awards, including the World Championship of Tango (Japan 2006) and the Latin ACE Awards (New York 2015).
