ONE-OFF – Only milonga in the Kensington Gardens Bandstand in 2026

NOTE that this will be held in the Kensington Gardens Bandstand and NOT in the Hyde Park Bandstand. (Avoiding competition for the space from the Salsa dancers)

Hyde Park Milonga is at Kensington Gardens on Saturday, 22 August 2025.

The bandstand has been beautifully refurbished. The floor is wooden so easier on the feet. The acoustics are superb.

**** 16:15 > 20:00 ****

Note that, unlike Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens closes soon after sunset, which will be at 20:11. The park gates close at 20:30 on 22 August 2026. .

Host & DJ: Warren Edwardes who will play a smooth tsunami of Golden Age and Silk Age tangos from 1930 to 1970 including a few European 1930s tangos.

The Kensington Gardens Bandstand is located in the southern part of the park, just below the Round Pond.
