Only 12 days to go until our annual parade we've already had a fantastic response from bands who plan on attending.

This year is shaping up to be even bigger than last year's turn out with big crowds anticipated we would recommend getting into the town as early as possible to get parked.

Any new bands that plan on attending just drop us a message and we will get use added onto the 11/1 form.

What a day the 493 had yesterday 🧡

We remembered our brethren no longer with us and we celebrated the Twelfth of July

Genuinely think it gets better every year. The Ballycraigy band were outstanding and we welcomed new brethren into the ranks

Our 3 visiting brethren from Blackburn were made most welcome as always 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

The future’s bright
