Buxton Day(s) of Dance 2025 – Sat 19th/Sun 20th July
Buxton Day of Dance, organised by Chapel-en-le-Frith Morris, is an annual feature of Buxton Festival Fringe .
As 2025 is our 50th anniversary year we have decided to extend our traditional day of dance to a 2-day extravaganza so we can include more Morris sides than our usual 15. A feast of traditional dancing from around the country, the streets of Buxton will be filled with the music, colour, passion, energy and humour that the Morris brings, with dancers and musicians from up to 30 different Morris sides. Dancing will start 10.30am and continue throughout the day at various venues (incl Market Place, The Slopes, Pavilion Gardens, Spring Gardens, The Crescent, Opera House forecourt et al) concluding with a mass display at the bottom of The Slopes (c3.30pm on Sat and c2.30pm on Sun)
