Tonight Nottingham will be illuminated for the tenth annual Light Night celebration.
More than 50 free events and activities will take place across the city from 3-11pm on Friday.
The celebration focuses on light installations which change the look and feel of the city centre at night and capture its culture and creativity.
Thousands of people are expected to take part in what is meant to be an event which encourages families to visit late in the evening.
Here is a taste of what is on offer.

A range of art exhibitions and collections will be on display in the castle galleries, along with installations by Andy McKeown in the castle grounds.
The bandstand will be illuminated by 50 brightly coloured umbrellas suspended by constantly falling rain to the sound of a traditional musical box.
A UV sports village will provide tasters of archery, tennis, basketball and football, while a ‘glow-in-the-dark selfie run’ will take visitors to different sites around the city.
