Argentine tango is danced in other cities throughout South Africa.
There is now a newly-created Tango calendar for everything happening in Cape Town:

http://www.capetowntango.co.za/
 The idea is that it's a non-partisan source that offers a comprehensive and easy overview - all classes and events, updated frequently, as accurately as possible.
 There also a page with contact details for all the local organisers and teachers, links to their sites, and a google map with all the Tango locations pinned, to help the local community and visitors.
