Guarnerius Art Centre in Belgrade – Serbian Cultural Institution on National Importance, that is founded by the most famous ex-Yugoslavia violinist, Maestro Jovan Kolundžija, is the place where the first milonga (tango dance evening) was held in this part of Europe, back in 2003.

Since then, Guarnerius has become center of gathering of many tango dancers and tango music fans, and together with the Belgrade Tango Association, we are cherishing tango culture in our region, through various events – monthly milongas, workshops, festivals, tango classes…
