Our History The Austin Spring Tango Festival was founded in 2005 by Vance Rightmire and Margaret Loeb with the design of benefiting local dancers. The inaugural Festival had a modest attendance of 35 dancers. Over the years the Festival flourished under Vance and Margarets leadership. Margaret, sadly, passed away in 2010, and with the Festivals exponential growth, the Austin Tango Society was formed in 2013 to take over the management of the Festival. In 2017 the Austin Tango Society launched the Guided Practica Program to expand the community support and help teachers and dancers throughout the year. More Info below.
