The free display returned to South Shields seafront on Sunday, November 6 – and it was eyes to the skies as the fireworks brought a splash of colour and sparkle to a cold autumn evening by the coast. As spectators of all ages enjoyed the glittering show, there were plenty of people reaching for the camera to capture the memories.
Re-live the night in style with some fantastic photographs taken by Gazette readers.
