The Marathon

COLEGIALA N0 9

THE MARATHON

The 8th edition will take place from 20th to 22th of September 2024!

On 19th September: Warm Up Milonga!

The marathon will take place in the Residence Marina Tower, which was in the past, a Fiat Sea Colony for children and which today lodges a holiday village with direct access to the beach of Marina di Massa. 

Colegiala is a cozy event: role-balanced, friendly atmosphere, perfect dancefloor (floating wooden laminate with 5mm absorbent mat), relaxing social area, lots of windows with garden view to have the full day and night experience.

The marathon will be residential (participants must lodge in the Village Marina Tower in double, triple or quadruple rooms). Dinners and brunches and breakfasts will be served in a separate restaurant hall from there participants will enjoy a beautiful view of the sea under the light of the sun and the moon.

Snacks, fruits, water and tisanes will be always available.

You can enjoy the Sea, the view of the Apuan Alps.... and a LOT OF TANGO!

We look forward to host you in our marathon in Tuscany!

The Venue

THE VENUE

 

The tower, originally named TORRE BALILLA, was built in 1933, in just 90 days and with the work of 1,000 men, commissioned by Giovanni Agnelli and created on a project by Vittorio Bonadè-Bottino.

The Tower, which represents a strong visual signal of landscape, was conceived as a giant helix that rotates around the a central well formed by the ramp of stairs. The foundations  are based directly on the sand.

Over time, the Colonia Fiat has not undergone major transformations external. Saved from the bombings of World War II, was used as a military hospital. Between 1991 and 1992 were carried out renovations in order to host the Village Marina Tower.

BALLROOM

The marathon will take place in the Village Torre Marina, in the bright and warm Hall Theatre, on a more than 250 sqm floor in artificial wood. Because we care about your feet and knees a dancefloor in wood laminate (with a 5mm shock-absorbing mat) will be specially built for the event.

 

ACCOMMODATION

Accommodation is in double, quadruple rooms, furnished and equipped with private bathrooms. Bed linen and towels will be available. The rooms are not equipped with a hairdryer (to be asked at the hotel reception).

Consider that the residence was a colony, so the rooms are very simple and without extra comforts (no TV, no boiler, no phone).

 

You can choose to stay an additional night (Thursday or/and Sunday) in  ALL INCLUSIVE formula that includes the dinner of Thursady/Sunday + breakfast and lunch of Friday/Monday (in Monday, if you will leave before the lunch time you can reserve the packed lunch).

For the prices see the Registration section.

COUPLES
If you are in couple, both of you must fill in the form separately, specifying the name of your partner in the box at the moment of registration (is not possible to do it after!). Couples do not take precedence. It is not possible to change a couple registration to a single registration.

ACCOMMODATION
As the marathon is residential, in the registration form you have to choose the type of accommodation you prefer.
DOUBLE AND TWIN-BEDDED ROOMS COULD BE ASSIGNED ONLY TO PARTNERS (so couple registration doesn't guarantee the double room)
PEOPLE REGISTERED AS SINGLE WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY CONFIRMED IN TRIPLE/QUADRUPLE ROOMS AND MATCHED WITH SAME SEX DANCERS
We point out that, except for those who subscribed in couple and share the same room, we can not ensure that the roommate you suggested in the registration form will be the effective one... clearly roommates that we will assign will be of your same sex.
Change room: If the places in accommodation you requested are no more available, we will send you a confirmation e-mail with the accommodation that we can offer to you (eg. change from double to quadruple room), so pay attention to read carefully our confirmation email before do the payment.

CONFIRMATION

We need 15 days to process all the requests and after this time, you'll receive a message from us telling you whether your registration is confirmed or if you've been put on a waiting list (depending on number and balance of registrations). The confirmation to participate is strictly personal and therefore cannot be transferred to another person.

 


PAYMENT METHOD​​
If your registration is confirmed you will be invited to pay via Bank Transfer the marathon fee (not Room and meals fee).

The cost of accomodation and food will have to be payed cash at marathon checkin.

You can attend the event once you have paid the cost and received a confirmation from us.

Please consider that if you register in couple but you will pay separately, you will be finally declared "in" only when both payments are received. If you do not pay this on time, it causes a lot of extra work for us and so we would really appreciate your co-operation in paying on time. If you have a problem paying on time, please contact us to say when we should expect to receive it or we may cancel your subscription without any warning. Details regarding payment will be given in the confirmation e-mail. Please make sure that you cover all the costs of the bank transfer (if it is a European International one you have to state it explicitly while asking it) as we quoted for the fee a net cost.
