Dear all former participants,

In the words of Marvin Gaye (well technically Norman Whitfield), perhaps you've already heard it through the grapevine... After 3 years of dedicated efforts, the Victoria Tango Marathon is taking a break. The core organizing trio is scattered with Kelly busy being a mom to two young boys, Sam living on the other side of the continent, and Grazyna focused on growing her tango and that of our local Victoria community. It's been exciting and rewarding for us to organize and host this lovely event each year and we hope to be able to bring it back when the timing is right, but it won't be 2026 😕

During the hiatus, we will be supporting a sister event organized by a few amazing members of our community. We highly encourage you to attend this marathon so we can all see and dance with each other once again.
Island Embrace will take place from April 10-12th 2026 and involves many of the volunteers who helped make VTM what it is. It is bound to be a success, they already announced an awesome lineup of DJs so check them out and make sure not to miss that party!

Until next time, un abrazo muy fuerte!

The VTM Team
Grazyna, Kelly, and Sam
