Theater website is hacked and won't get you tickets so buy through Viator or box office directly
Wanted to let people know that the theaters official website has been hacked and the theater is not very responsive to it, not offering discounts for the trouble they put people through- you have to cancel your charges, but the site should be just closed- it looks genuine with better prices. People are up for a big surprise once they get to theater, I used then Viator as the theater was charging twice the price if credit card was used... for that I feel the theater should be a little more proactive and offer better prices for people who got tickets through their website.... its basically their responsibility and they should be dealing with it in a better matter. But Viator was smooth and easy to use and even tickets were available right before the show started.

Avoid at all costs
Very poor service If you look at other reviews for this show , other users have had a poor service We arrived for the show at 9pm to be told that the show wasn’t starting until 10pm We had rushed to arrive on time The show was pleasant but there was no air conditioning so it was unbearably hot in the theatre Would not recommend and find another company

Dancing, singing, music,...
Dancing, singing, music, atmosphere, this show had it all! Four stars! I would recommend to anyone. Must see to learn more about the Argentinian culture.

Do not trust Viator!
The Piazzolla Tango show itself was fantastic – the dancers, the live orchestra, and the atmosphere were absolutely worth seeing. However, our experience was completely overshadowed by Viator’s false advertising and lack of response. We purchased the “Dinner + Show” package through Viator, which clearly included a full three-course meal and Merlot wine. But when we arrived, the staff at Piazzolla Tango showed us that Viator only sent them tickets for two meals and no wine. I even showed them my Viator confirmation email that listed everything we had paid for, but they said there was nothing they could do because Viator hadn’t sent them the correct ticket. We ended up having to pay over $100 extra at the venue just to get what we had already paid for through Viator. I tried contacting Viator afterward, and as of now, they still haven’t replied or offered any help. It’s incredibly disappointing; the show deserves 5 stars, but Viator completely ruined the experience with misleading listings and terrible customer service. I would 100% recommend seeing Piazzolla Tango, but DO NOT book it through Viator.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. We’re very glad to hear you enjoyed the Piazzolla Tango show — it truly is an exceptional experience. Regarding your comment about the dinner, we’ve checked our records and can confirm that the option you booked through Viator was the VIP seating – Show only option, which does not include dinner or wine. Viator lists several different product options (with dinner, without dinner, VIP, etc.), and the inclusions for each are clearly detailed in the description as well as on the voucher you received. Unfortunately, it’s quite common for travelers to overlook these distinctions when selecting their preferred option on Viator’s page, which can lead to this type of misunderstanding. We recommend carefully reviewing the inclusions before finalizing any booking to avoid future confusion. We’re sorry for any inconvenience this caused, but in this case the issue was not due to Piazzolla Tango or our local operations. Best regards, Maximo Yedid

Piazzolla Tango Show Buenos Aires: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Buenos Aires.
How much does Piazzolla Tango Show Buenos Aires cost?
+
Prices start at $32 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Buenos Aires usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Piazzolla Tango Show Buenos Aires take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Buenos Aires is not rushed.
Is Piazzolla Tango Show Buenos Aires worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 31 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Buenos Aires, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Piazzolla Tango Show Buenos Aires?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Piazzolla Tango Show Buenos Aires suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Piazzolla Tango Show Buenos Aires?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Buenos Aires can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Buenos Aires and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Piazzolla Tango Show Buenos Aires start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Buenos Aires within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Buenos Aires?
+
On Outty we rank every Buenos Aires experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Argentine Cooking, Wine & Beef Tasting at Argentine Experience, Historical Sherpa Food Tour of San Telmo with Street Food, Drinks, Cooking Class with Empanadas Steak & Flan by Argentine Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Buenos Aires?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Buenos Aires?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Piazzolla Tango Show Buenos Aires?
+
Included: 2 drinks of your choice: A glass of wine, beer or soft drinks (if Drinks option selected); Three-course dinner and free drinks: Malbec wine, beer, soft drinks (if Dinner option sele; and Tango show. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
The experience starts at Piazzolla Tango, Calle Florida 165, Galeria Guemes, Buenos Aires, C1005AAC, Argentina. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
