Thousands of members of the Royal Black Institution and accompanying bands stepped out in Lisburn for the Co Antrim 'Last Saturday' demonstration.

Six districts took part in the parade - Lisburn, Ballymena, Antrim, Larne, Ballymoney and Ballyclare – made up of 79 preceptories and accompanied by around 75 bands.

This was the first time since 2015 that Lisburn hosted the ‘Last Saturday’ parade.
