It's been a festive weekend in Nottinghamshire as people flocked to a number of events across the county. In Nottingham city centre, huge crowds packed into Winter Wonderland on Saturday and Sunday, with a number of stallholders speaking out about the success of this year and how they believe it's been one of the best yet.
Further north in Mansfield, a crowd of around 10,000 strong were in the Market Place to watch 90s band East 17 switch-on the town's Christmas lights. Our reporter said it was a huge celebration with people of all ages turning out to enjoy the festivities.
After the event, a spokesperson for the District Council put the following message on their Facebook page: "Our Christmas lights are now lighting up the town. Thank you to everyone who came to our Big Lights Switch On event today, we hope you had a lovely time."
