The Royal Black Institution

by Gillian McDade

Castledawson and Aughnacloy are two of the six venues announced for this year’s Royal Black parades.

Sovereign Grand Master Millar Farr will attend the Castledawson parade on Saturday, August 26.

He says the Institution is once again looking forward to the much-anticipated day in the parading calendar.

Up to 80 preceptories will take part in the demonstration in Aughnacloy.

This is Aughnacloy’s first procession since 2006.

The largest parade of the day will be in Comber where 5,000 members of the Loyal Order will be on parade.

A total of 107 preceptories and around 100 bands will take part in the procession.
