Accompanied by over 120 bands, the loyal order was marking the 337th anniversary of the Relief of Londonderry.
The parade commemorates the end of the 105-day siege of the city in 1689, when its inhabitants celebrated the arrival of relief after enduring months of attacks, hunger, disease and death.
Ahead of today’s proceedings, governor of the Associated Clubs of the Apprentice Boys of Derry, William Walker, said: “With the relief of the city we commemorate the defiance and determination of the people of this city in securing civil and religious liberty for all.”
Spectators lined to streets of the city today to support the thousands of Apprentice Boys on parade, and enjoy the musical talents of the various marching bands.
Here are 20 images of today’s parade.
