No big fireworks display, but New Year's Eve still goes off with a bang in Manchester
There might not have been the traditional fireworks display, but New Year's Eve still went off with a bang in Manchester. The traditional pyrotechnics display was axed this year, yet another victim of funding cuts, but the thousands of party-goers who descended on the city centre weren't going to let that spoil their night.
Hundreds gathered in Piccadilly Gardens for the big moment. Those in attendance were asked to switch on their phone torches and cheers rang out as the countdown began on a big screen. But it also looked like being disappointment for many who didn't make it inside the event, with the queue for entry just 15 minutes before midnight reaching all the way to the old Debenhams
