Dunloy Accordion Band annual parade
This year the band have decided to return to their roots with their traditional parade and have postponed the afternoon Ulster Scots festival that normally accompanied the parade for the interim.
However that is not to say there will be any less of an abundance of top quality music because as usual there will be music in the early evening with performances at Castlecroft from Baillies Mills Accordion Band from 6pm to 7.30pm. From 6.30 pm the focus will switch to High Street where there will be music provided by Churchill Flute Band from this year’s UK City of Culture and Ballyhalbert Flute band from the low country on the Ards peninsula.

Spectators are asked to note that this year the parade will again move off from the Showgrounds at 7.30 pm. The parade will feature all the usual nuances that make it so family friendly including The Friendly Faces, balloons, sweets, flags and face painters.
