Every two years the three Morris dancing organisations, The Morris Ring, The Morris Federation and the Open Morris, hold a joint Day of Dance in a UK city.

After a very successful 2007 event in Birmingham, the next JMO Day of Dance will be held in Nottingham, and will be co-ordinated by Lady Bay Revellers and co-hosted with other local teams, on Saturday 28th March 2009.

We expect some 40 teams to attend the day, which will be a colourful and spectacular display of all the various styles of this traditional form of English Dance, set amongst the historic and bustling city centre of Nottingham.

Dancing will begin at about 10.00am and continue throughout the day at numerous locations around the city, with a lively finale of a massed Morris dance display with all the teams together late Saturday afternoon.

This page will be updated with all the information that teams and the general public will require, as the planning of the Day of Dance is finalised, and will include information on how to get there, local eating houses and pubs, the timetable for the day and the list of participating teams.

Please check back for more information at a later date, or if you have any immediate questions please contact barryroland@hotmail.com
