You are invited to join us to dance up the sun this May 2025. We will welcome in the sun, and then have a breakfast picnic in Barangaroo together. As the tradition goes, unless the morris dance in the early dark of May 1st, the sun wont rise. So come and cheer us on, as we herald the beginning of the cool.
This tradition comes from the northern hemisphere and is shared across some cultures as, amongst many things, the coming of summer, midway between the spring equinox and summer solstice. We are sharing this tradition with our northern morris cousins, bouncing the warm sun their way, while ourselves welcoming in the lovely cooler months and celebrating the end of the festival season.
May Day also commemorates those who struggled to win the right to fair pay and an eight-hour day, and we honour this as well.
For many years this has been our private ceremony, but we would love to invite our folk friends to this special time this year.
