Event Navigation
Even Better this year with MORE interlocking-floating dance floor, More dance hours, Expanded food options.
Location: Friday, Saturday and Sunday –Doubletree Hotel 2651 Perimeter Pkwy, Augusta, GA 30909
(706) 855-8100 For a description of Doubletree Augusta please “google” it. I’ve seen it rated 3-4 stars. There is also shuttle service to and from the airport, Augusta Mall, and Augusta Exchange shopping center.
Please note that a bartender will be serving beer and wine just outside the ballroom on Friday and Saturday nights until midnight.
As this is a full service venue, please plan to purchase food, wine, etc. from the hotel or keep it in your room. Please do not bring your own bottle or food into the milongas.
This is more than dancing! It’s a time to meet and socialize with dancers across the region and across the US. If you call to make reservations, be sure you mention the Augusta Tango Club Marathon to get a special rate of $99 for a standard room (2 double beds or 1 king) or $124 for 1 king-whirlpool suite.
==> Based on limited availability!! Discount rooms can still be made by calling Ashley Person (Doubletree) at 706 855 9414. She can manually add you to our discount block. BUT the hotel is getting tight on space.
For other Hotels close-by I would recommend Tripadvisor.com. Milongas will run continuously except when changing DJs.
==>Registration is closed for this year!! This is a prepaid event!
