Around 5,000 people took part – including 50 bands - in the event organised by Carrickfergus Historical Re-enactment Group to mark the arrival of King William on his way to the Battle of the Boyne in 1690.
Although the day was more suited to umbrellas than sunglasses, the pageant and parade drew many spectators from far and wide.
These photos show some of the colour and spectacle of the day.
