Welcoming you!
The Morris Federation and Grimspound Border Morris extend a warm welcome to all members of The Morris Federation to join us in a day of dance in Exmouth, Devon, on Saturday 19th July 2025.
The Morris Federation and host teams are running a series of regional events to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Morris Federation, founded in 1975.
The day of dance in Exmouth is being hosted by Grimspound Border Morris. The organisers say:
We are hoping to utilise a number of dance spots along the seafront as well as around town, including The Strand. We expect dancing to start around 10am on Saturday morning, with a finale finish around 4-5pm. This will be followed by an evening of music sessions held in one or more pubs in the local area.
On Friday evening, we will hopefully host a Ceilidh, which will be free to attend for all dancers & musicians. We will issue tickets nearer the time.
There are a limited number of camping pitches available at Prattshayes Campsite, Maer Lane, Exmouth, EX8 5DB. A 10% discount is available for all Morris sides (please let them know when booking); pitches include Tent, Caravan, Camper; with or without electric; grass or hard stand. All pitches will be on a 1st come 1st served basis. Please call 01395 276626 to book; Website: Prattshayes Campsite.
There are also many other accommodation types in and around Exmouth. A list will be provided but in the meantime, feel free to research yourself and get your bookings made as early as you need.
Sunday will be a chilled day, with breakfast at one of the cafes in Exmouth, and then perhaps enjoy some time around Exmouth, or head off home.
Due to the large number of sides that may be interested, we are sending invitations out to all sides in the local area with a deadline for booking a confirmed place on Monday 31 March. If there are still spaces available after this date, we will extend the invitation to sides who are further away. Local teams – please follow this link to confirm your interest or book a place: Register for the Exmouth day of dance. Other teams – please save the date.
