Orange walk information


Orangemen marching in Bangor, County Down, Northern Ireland, on 12 July 2010.

Orange walks, or Orange marches, are a series of parades by members of the Orange Order and other Protestant fraternal societies, held during the summer months in various Commonwealth nations, and most notably across Ireland.[1] The parades typically build up to 12 July celebrations marking Prince William of Orange's victory over King James II and VII at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690.

Orange walks are considered controversial[2][3] and face opposition from Catholics,[3] Irish nationalists and Scottish nationalists[4] who see the parades as sectarian and triumphalist. They have also drawn criticism in recent years from other religious communities, left-wing groups, and trade unions.[5]
