As King Charles was crowned at Westminster Abbey in London, people came together across Greater Manchester to celebrate the new monarch - and enjoy a party.
The bunting came out and Union Jacks were everywhere as people decided to have a right royal knees up. Many thronged to big screens in Piccadilly Gardens and elsewhere which showed the unfolding pageantry taking place 200 miles away.
Elsewhere, residents painted their faces in red, white and blue and held street parties to raise a glass to King Charles and Queen Camilla. Young and old alike donned plastic Union Jack bowler hats and babies wore golden crowns.
