The Royal Black Institution is holding its traditional "Last Saturday" demonstrations across Northern Ireland.

This year 28 much reduced  local parades are being held to avoid larger crowds in the midst of a pandemic.

They'll each consist of a short religious ceremony to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Northern Ireland.

Sovereign grand master Reverend William Anderson, said: urged everyone attending Saturday's parades to comply with Covid-19 health regulations and guidance, and to follow directions given by police and event marshals.
