There will be no Twelfth of July parades this year in Northern Ireland due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
The Orange Lodge said the decision was made, given the spread of the virus.
Grand Master of the Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland Edward Stevenson said the decision had been taken “with regret”.
“In the current circumstances, the gathering of hundreds of thousands of Orangemen and women, together with their accompanying bands and spectators, would not be responsible.
“I appreciate that our culture and traditions are very much a way of life for the Orange family.
“However, in light of the current situation, we must prioritise the safety of not only our members, but of the entire community.”
