Itinerary The Milongón Show
Montevideo is a city with a varied and extensive culture that makes it a great enriching cosmopolitan capital. A couple of its most representative traditions are the milonga and the candombe that you can enjoy at El Milongón: Candombe Show and Folklore, a very special place that contains the best Uruguayan dance and gastronomy. Dinner and dance show is the perfect combination for an unforgettable evening surrounded by an atmosphere prepared with the utmost detail and dedication for your greatest pleasure.
The Milongón, located in the old part of the Uruguayian capital, where the Gaboto Conventillo was originally located, is a cultural house that seeks to spread the cultural heritage of Uruguay among its visitors through its most representative artistic expression, accompanied by a typical cuisine and carefully selected national and imported wines.
The Milongón: Candombe and Folklore Show begins the evening with Candombe, a traditional rhythm composed of dance and music created by African slaves in the 1800s and which is recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by Unesco. The drums begin, deep and intense, and immediately afterward, performers are emerging with an incredible choreography that will make the audience vibrate along with the singers, dancers, and musicians.
Then the show continues with Tango and Milonga and their sensual movements. The show completes a splendid variety of folk dances.

The Milongón: Candombe and Folklore Show also offers the option to dine while enjoying the impressive show, with typical Uruguayan cuisine and a delicious variety of selected wines to later stay to dance with Uruguayan popular music.
