Sorry to break it to you, but the forecast calls for rain on Saturday and Sunday. Side note, you can never FULLY trust the weather reports in Argentina. Why? Because zones with a temperate climate have very unpredictable weather. In spite of the dreary weather, we have some pretty sweet options for you to soak up your three days of freedom.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of long weekends, I seriously can&#8217;t think of any other country that has more\u00a0public holidays than Argentina. Maybe India? Colombia? Argentina has a grand total of 15. A whopping F-I-V-E more than the United States. This coming Monday is the Day of National Sovereignty, which commemorates the Battle of Vuelta de Obligado in 1845 that lead to the signing of a peace treaty between Argentina, France and Britain.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the lineup for this long weekend, including lots of good food and bangin&#8217; music!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 15<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>Jazz Festival<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Screen-Shot-2019-11-15-at-13.22.46.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7124\" src=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Screen-Shot-2019-11-15-at-13.22.46-300x157.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2019-11-15 at 13.22.46\" width=\"300\" height=\"157\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Screen-Shot-2019-11-15-at-13.22.46-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Screen-Shot-2019-11-15-at-13.22.46-696x365.png 696w, https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Screen-Shot-2019-11-15-at-13.22.46-801x420.png 801w, https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Screen-Shot-2019-11-15-at-13.22.46.png 992w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This new edition of #BAJazz is arguably the most important Jazz festival in Buenos Aires with 27 different locations across the city.

Over time, tango evolved into a heterosexual dance and has remained so for over 10 decades. This queer tango experience fights back against the patriarchy, machismo culture and most importantly, gender norms.
