She also revealed that the council had been looking at a VIP list of guests and had been in contact with the MOD regarding this. The Lord Lieutenant of Antrim, Joan Christie, will also be in attendance.

Mrs Donaghy said that the event would be “family-orientated to engage with as many people as possible.” She praised the work of Councillors including Cllr Donna Anderson and Alderman Gregg McKeen for the event. The plans will go to full council for discussion.
