Dollingstown band parade praised by PUP
PUP spokesperson Lexi Davidson commented: “The parade was of the highest standard and it was great once again to see so many families out enjoying what is a very proud part of their Loyalist culture.
“So often there is only negativity shown towards our marching band culture and organisers of such parades are continually lambasted but in reality this parade brought people into Lurgan, these people spent their money in the local shops and takeaways giving these businesses a much needed boost.

“Praise must also go to the PSNI who used sensible policing at this parade.”
