DESCRIPTION:

In Northern Ireland, July 12 is the Orangemen’s Day. Otherwise known as The Glorious Twelfth, this is a bank holiday celebrated Monday when it falls on a weekend. It commemorates the Battle of Boyne. Public offices, businesses, and transport services are on special holiday timetables, and marches organized by the Lodges of the Orange Order are held.

March participants dress in suits with black bowler hats, white gloves, and collarettes, usually in orange and draped around the neck to form a V-shape. Collarets indicate the lodge number and position of the wearer.

The Battle of the Boyne occurred on July 1, 1690, near Drogheda on the east coast of Ireland between the forces of King James VII of Scotland and James II of England. Prince William of Orange, who later became King William III, emerged the victor. At its base, the Battle of the Boyne is the struggle between Catholics and Protestants for Ireland, with Prince William of Orange representing the latter and King James, the former. The actual battle did not happen on July 12 but on July 1. The dates differ today because the Gregorian Calendar replaced the Julian calendar in 1752.
