Once again the town will be alive with dancers, and the streets of Wallingford will ring with the music of distant melodeons. BunkFest’s 2005 effort to provide five Morris Dancers per capita of the population sees a record number of teams performing, ranging from the traditional to the not quite so traditional, from the exotic to the sublime. Border Morris, Northwest Clog Morris, Cotswold Morris, Molly, Rapper, Step Clog, Appalachian, Welsh Folk Dance, Circle Dance and Belly Dance, some from the furthest reaches of England and Wales and some from much closer to Wallingford.

Displays take place from 10.30 - 16.30 Saturday and 10.30 - 16.30 Sunday, on the Kinecroft North & South Stages, at the Bunk Beer Festival, Market Place, The Dolphin, and The George. New for 2005 we have a tour of Rapper teams around the town on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, taking in many locations including The Cross Keys, The Dolphin, The George and Step Off the World. Come and see this intricate and thrilling style of dance! Silver Flame Rapper (Fri) and Gog Magog Molly (Sat) will be dancing to delight during the Ceilidhs at Wallingford Sports Park, and if all this activity inspires you to have a go, we have workshops at the Regal Centre from Ridgeway Stepclog, Dorset Buttons Rapper, The Isisters, The Witchmen, Wallingford Circle Dance Group, New Esperance Morris and Gog Magog Molly.
