Pavo Real Tango Terms & Conditions

Event Policies

Pavo Real Tango Marathon is a private event, accessible only to individuals who have successfully registered and are listed as participants by the organizers.  The organizers of the event assume the right of selecting the participants, meaning that "first come, first in" principle is not applied.

  • Event Access: Entry is granted exclusively to confirmed participants, defined as those whose registrations have been accepted and whose payments have been completed.
  • Registration Process: All registrations and accomodation bookings must be submitted through the official form on our website. The form is for expressing interest only. Submitting the form does not confirm or guarantee automatically the participation.
  • Event Ticketing: Single evening tickets are not available; only full-event bookings are accepted.
  • Confirmation Timeline: After registration, a response will be provided within 15 days. If your registration cannot be accepted within this timeframe or if no reply is sent, you will be placed on a waiting list. We will contact you when a spot becomes available.

Pavo Real Tango is a private event with limited participation, and all registrations are subject to approval. As maintaining gender balance is a priority, we may not be able to accommodate all applicants. Registrations are reviewed considering various factors, including dance level, gender balance, diversity of nationalities, and the overall atmosphere we aim to create. These considerations help us maintain a comfortable, balanced, and harmonious environment for everyone. The organizers may contact the particiapants  or other dancers to verify their tango experience and participation in previous tango events.The organizers reserve the right not to disclose the reasons for registration rejections. We appreciate your understanding and respect for this process.

Partner Registration

Registration as a couple is highly recommended. Seperate forms must be filled for both partners. The number of participants might be limited at the organizers discretion and a healthy ration between followers and leaders will be maintained. The organizers reserve the absolute right to accept or reject any application for participating in the event (including festival, marathon, encuentro, meeting, congress, competition, lessons, milongas, parties, tours, or any other activity related to the event) at their sole discretion, without assigning any reasons thereof. Legal recourse in case of refusal is not permitted.
When registering with a dance partner, your registrations are considered linked, meaning:

  • Linked Registration: Both registrations must reference each other by name to be considered as a pair. Registering with roommates does not bound your registrations together.If all of you get accepted we'll arrange the accommodation of your choice. If some of you get accepted, we'll coordinate together finding new roommates from the participants.
  • Acceptance: Both partners will either be accepted together or not at all.
  • Payment: Full payment from both partners is required for confirmation.
  • Cancellation: If one partner cancels, both registrations will be canceled. If the other partner still wishes to participate, they must submit a new registration form. Please note that the new registration will be considered independently and does not guarantee participation. It will be subject to the same terms, conditions, and selection criteria.
    Note: If you registered without a partner and your registration has been approved, you cannot add a partner to your registration afterward. If you registered as a couple or dance both roles, this cannot be guaranteed as a basis for registration approval.

Force Majeure Clause 

If any event or circumstance beyond the organizers' control arises, preventing the full or partial execution of activities (a “Force Majeure Event”), the organizers may suspend their obligations to participants without assuming responsibility for any resulting impacts. In such cases, the organizers will not be held accountable for any losses or damages incurred by participants and will not be obligated to provide compensation or refunds.
