The 77th annual Marian Procession took place on Sunday 17 May with about 2,000 people taking advantage of the sunshine to walk from Victoria Park to Victoria Square where Archbishop Patrick O'Regan led the liturgy. It was a quite extraordinary turnout with flags and banners showing where people had come from across the Archdiocese. Photographer BEN MACMAHON was on hand to capture the action.
