Ulster First Flute Band Parade 2011

Some scenes from the Ulster First Flute Band's 15th Annual Parade held in Belfast on 18 June 2011. Around 30 bands took part and this video shows 12 of them. The route took in Sandy Row, Great Victoria Street and the Donegall Road, and these pictures were taken between 8.15pm and 10.15pm.

Prizes were awarded on the evening with first, second and third prizes in eleven categories. It's pure coincidence that nine of the first prize winners are featured in these clips and I've highlighted those in the list above. Other first place prizes awarded were:

Best accordion band - Corbet Accordion Band
Best style and appearance - Portavogie Red Hand Defenders Flute Band
