Apprentice Boys of Derry
Une parade des Apprentices Boys of Derry à Bushmills.

Les Apprentices Boys of Derry (français : Apprentis de Derry) sont une fraternité protestante basée à Derry en Irlande du Nord. Liée à l'ordre orangiste et à la Ballinode Appreciation Organisation (en), elle organise des commémorations de la Glorieuse Révolution, en particulier le siège de Derry de 1688. Les parades qu'ils organisent sont souvent l'occasion d'accrochages avec la communauté catholique, en particulier pendant le conflit nord-irlandais. Le 12 août 1969, l'une d'elle déclencha la bataille du Bogside.
