The sun shone as huge crowds gathered for Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations in Killylea and Loughgall this afternoon (Saturday).

The four-day weekend has put a smile on everyone’s faces and the sun certainly helped brighten it further.

In Loughgall, there was a party in the Rectory Garden and a fancy dress parade from St Luke’s Church car park.

A people’s parade, led by Ballytyrone and Hillhaven bands, was held this evening followed by a BBQ, a beacon and a lone piper.

On Sunday evening at 7pm there will be a community service involving all the churches accompanied by Armagh Old Boys Silver Band.

In Killylea, there was a procession of bands, with fancy dress, vintage cars and live music.
