In 27 pictures: Thousands turn out for 2026 March for Jesus event in Belfast

Between 16,000 – 20,000 people from churches across Ireland and beyond were expected to take part.

The organisers, March for Jesus UK, described the Belfast event as a large-scale, non-political, family-friendly public event celebrating the Christian faith.

The event began with people meeting in Ormeau Park before the march set off along Ormeau Embankment into the city centre.

A large crowd gathered in front of Belfast City Hall for a time of worship, testimonies and prayer.
