Bannside (District Electoral Area)

Bannside is one of the seven district electoral areas (DEA) in Mid and East Antrim, Northern Ireland. The district elects six members to Mid and East Antrim District Council and contains the wards of Ahoghill, Cullybackey, Galgorm, Grange, Maine and Portglenone. Bannside forms part of the North Antrim constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament.

It was created for the 1993 local elections, where it contained five wards (Ahoghill, Cullybackey, Dunminning, Grange and Portglenone), replacing The Main DEA which had existed since 1985. For the 2014 local elections it gained an additional ward, gaining Galgorm from the abolished Ballymena North DEA.
