Banbridge has number of large car parks in the town centre marked on map below (Townsend street, Solitude car park, Coach Car park and Downshire place Car park etc.) as well as a number of other smaller car parks and spaces around the town which are suitable but will fill up quickly. Please be aware of parking charges and car parks which close early in the area (LIDL Car park etc.)
Police have advised for Band Buses to use Banbridge Leisure Centre for parking (a 2 minute walk from the town centre).
Banbridge town centre will be packed on Friday night and there will be a lot of hold up while trying to get through the town. We would encourage those who are not going to the parade to avoid the town centre while driving and to use Kenlis street, Scarva street, Rathfriland street and the Castlewellan road to get round the town without entering the centre to avoid hold ups.

The Public Toilets at the bus station (Kenlis Street) will be open during the parade. There will also be portaloos throughout the route. Please make use of these in order to keep Banbridge tidy.
Currently there is works taking place on the pavements in Banbridge at various points. Please refrain from moving barriers or standing in parts that the work is not yet complete
Drinking on the street is Banbridge is prohibited
Please refrain from sitting down along the side of the bridge for safety reasons.
The Sash Bash will take place in Banbridge Orange Hall on Victoria street (marked on map) approx a 2 minute walk from the centre of the town.
