Serving up a flavour of Ballyclare May Fair 2023 in 22 photos
The headline sponsor for this year’s programme is the Ulster-Scots Agency with visitors enjoying events such as ‘Rhymes and Ructions’ with historian Jack McKinney, Highland dancing lessons and a cookery demonstration by chef Paula McIntyre. The Ulster-Scots tradition of hymn writing was the theme at Ballyclare Presbyterian Church. Meanwhile, a pet show and a sausage dog parade were popular with animal lovers.
Here’s a selection of photos from the events.
