The annual Royal Black Preceptory demonstrations took place across Northern Ireland on Saturday, August 30. The parades mark the end of the marching season with six major 'Last Saturday' demonstrations taking place.
Events were held in Antrim, Castlederg, Cookstown, Ballyclare, Dundrum and Limavady. Around 17,000 members took part in the parades, which involved around 350 preceptories and 300 bands.
Sovereign Grand Master Rev William Anderson, who addressed the Cookstown gathering, said: "The annual Last Saturday processions are flagship events on the parading calendar.
"We expect to see thousands of supporters turning out at the various locations, where they will see a glorious expression of culture, pageantry, music and history.
"The institution's principled stance on the Reformed Christian Faith will be to the forefront at all our demonstrations on the Last Saturday, with religious services held at each location."
The Cookstown parade was attended by more than 60 preceptories accompanied by a variety of bands.
