The Vancouver Morris Men, based in Vancouver BC Canada, perform traditional English dance, theatre and song year round. Our performances vary with the seasons - what you experience in the winter will be different from what you will experience in the summer! See the links below for more details.

There are two morris sides in Vancouver, the "other one" being the women's side, Tiddley Cove Morris with whom we occasionally dance out.

We always welcome new members. If you fancy "having a go" at what you see on this website, please contact us.
