Spirits were high in Inverness tonight as thousands gathered for the city’s annual firework display.

Spectators braved the autumn chill to mark Bonfire Night and take in this year’s dazzling display at Bught Park.

The annual spectacle continues to draw in the crowds, with scores of families and friends wrapping up warm to enjoy the evening’s festivities.

Fly Agaric Fire Display Team put on a dazzling performance around the base of the bonfire, which was ignited by Provost Glynic Campbell Sinclair.

With one of Scotland’s largest bonfires, the crowds were kept warm as all eyes turned to the sky above.

Bright, vibrant colours illuminated the sky as the fireworks burst into life, accompanied by a soundtrack of carefully selected music.

The display was masterminded by award-winning Fireworx Scotland.

Meanwhile, away from Bught Park, spectators gathered at various local hotpots, including Inverness Castle, to enjoy the display from a bird’s eye view overlooking the city.

On Sunday, hundreds turned out for Elgin’s bonfire night display as crowds gathered at Mineralwell Park in Stonehaven to enjoy their take on the event.

Press and Journal photographer Sandy McCook was on hand to capture the evening’s top moments.
