The Parades Commission has again restricted an annual loyalist parade through mainly nationalist Rasharkin.
Twenty-Five bands will march in the north Antrim village on Friday evening, hosted by Ballymaconnelly Flute Band.
But they must disperse by 9pm - 30 minutes earlier than they requested.
'Rasharkin Residents' Collective', also restricted, said last week it was willing to call off its protest if the bands avoided the main street.
DUP Assemblyman Mervyn Storey is a parade participant:
