There is a list of dance teams in the print programme; though no firm timetable for performances. In addition, I gather that the Sheffield Giants have been added to the roster since I was given info for print.

The current list, then, would be:

Boggarts Breakfast
Chesterfield Garland
Chip Off the Old
Lizzie Dripping
Lord Conyers Morris Men
Mexican & Latin American Dance Troupe
Mr Fox (Saturday night performance at Kelham Island)
Pecsaetan Morris (Cotswold workshop, Sunday morning)
Rattlejag Morris
Sheffield Giants
Zalesie Polish Dancers

Morris and similar dancers are always difficult to get firm commitments from much in advance because so many people are involved, and it is usually only a week or two before the event that the dance display timetable is finalised. There is a "skeleton" timetable circulating at present, but final details haven't so far reached me.

The displays (except as noted above) will be in the City Centre between 11 am at 4 pm, at Orchard Square, the Peace Gardens and outside the Cathedral; finishing at Kelham Island.
