Video: 12th morning in Ballymena
A morning of drizzle meant that the traditional lambegs were kept under cover in the hope of a rattle at the main parade.
But there were no such problems for the flute bands and Ballygarvey LOL Flute Band were among those who paraded the town early.
Around 30 lodges with bands and drumming parties will take part in the Ballymena parade later today.
