The annual St Patrick’s Parade took place in Ardara today and was blessed with super weather as the sun shone through the blue skies overhead.
The parade is traditionally held the day before or after St Patrick’s Day and always generates big interest.
The Grand Marshal for the parade was local man John Cassidy.
The streets were lined with people as the variety of floats and bands made their way through Ardara.
