Introduction to Belfast   ORANGE FEST

The County Grand Orange Lodge of Belfast in co-operation with the Department for Social Development have appointed a full time Development Officer who will have responsibility to develop and promote Orangeism within the limits of the greater City of Belfast.

The primary aims of the Belfast Orangefest project are

  • The development and promotion of Belfast Orange Events in the City throughout the year in an increasingly positive light for all.
  • The development and promotion of, in particular, the Belfast “12TH of July” celebrations in Belfast so that this magnificent, traditional, cultural and colourful spectacle can be enjoyed by all our citizens and visitors alike.

Whilst committed to the tenets of the Principles and Core values of the Orange Institution and its Parading traditions; the Development Officer will place great emphasis on encouraging everyone, and in particular those whom may not have been spectators or supporters in the past, to join with us on this day of historical and cultural celebration in a happy and peaceful atmosphere and looking towards our vision of shared space for all.

It is envisaged that this will be achieved by a series of Information events, competitions, tours & visits and by actively reaching out to other traditions and cultures as well as involving Belfast Commerce and Tourism.

The Development Officer will endeavour to reach out to all and further information can be obtained from
