During the past few years, a tendency has developed
in some the Roman milongas who want to establish a-
fixed presence. They have evolved various commercial
activities related to tango, selling shoes, clothes, jewel-
ery, jewelery, handbags, books. These commercial activi-
ties enrich the interest of an evening. Fashion designers,
such as Emanuela Pansera, make sublime creations and
have dressed internationally renowned dancers. There
are also traveling exhibitors, such as Enrico Colagrossi
of World Treasures, who sells shoes and trousers of the
best manufacturers in the world.
During the year, Rome has its own tangible internation-
al marathons. The Roma NeoTango Marathon is now
in its sixth year and and has become an international
point-of-reference for neotango lovers. La Latina, now
called Rome Capoccia, is a very successful marathon
that began in 2012, It is organized by the Mascalzoni
Latini. deGENERE is a queer marathon that is in its
second year with a great growing following. The SPQR
Tango Marathon is another marathon has completed
its second year with a great success.
In short, Rome offers really wide and varied chances to
dance tango. The city offers great dancing,in addition to
its wonderful monuments, and many emotional oppor-
tunties for tango.
