Thousands of people marched through the centre of Leicester on Sunday to mark the Sikh festival of Vaisakhi.
About 10,000 people were thought to have visited for the three-hour Nagar Kirtan procession from the Guru Nanak Gurdwara, on Holy Bones, through the centre of the city and back.
Vaisakhi, celebrated earlier in the month, marks the founding of the Sikh community, known as Khalsa, in 1699.
Flowers, flags and food play key parts in marking the community celebration.
Gurdwara congregation member Sukhjeet Singh said: "It's a chance for the whole of Leicester congregation to get together and show unity and love, give our flowers and our devotion together."
He added: "It's also a chance for the wider community to participate, they're seeing what our religion is about and why we celebrate it.
"And the food and the festive spirit, it just spreads throughout the whole of Leicester."
