In pictures: Portadown Mini Twelfth draws the crowds despite poor weather

Large crowds turned out despite poor weather on Saturday evening for the annual Portadown Mini Twelfth.

Portadown District LOL No 1 said the event is “always a good start to our 12th July preparations”.

The organisers said it was “great to welcome an array of many of the country’s finest bands to parade around our town”.

Photographer MP Doran was there to cover the event.
