An Orange parade involving 3,000 people has been blocked from walking along the Garvaghy Road in Portadown in July.
Orangemen, pictured at the Drumcree parade in 2022, had applied for a bigger parrade this yearThe Parades Commission has prevented the Orange Order from a march involving 3,000 people on the Garvaghy Road in Portadown next month.It had applied for a larger-than-normal annual Drumcree parade to mark the 25th anniversary of it being stopped from taking the route it wants.
In its ruling the commission imposed restrictions on the parade, banning it from entering Garvaghy Road.Each July the Portadown Orange Lodge attends a service at Drumcree Parish Church to commemorate the anniversary of the Battle of the Somme. Orangemen have been banned since 1998 from going down the mainly-nationalist Garvaghy Road after their annual march from the church.
The march was the biggest flashpoint in Northern Ireland's marching season in the 1990s and led to serious violence over several summers.
