On Thursday night, party goers had to contend with the wind and rain.

But the weather held up on Friday, as hundreds took to towns across Britain to get into the Bank Holiday spirit.

Many people put on their finest for their big night, with some even opting for fancy dress costumes to help their party go with a bang.

While further south in Birmingham, one woman matched her black dress with Easter bunny ears and others matched their outfits with cowboy hats.

Many drinkers over in Nottingham also got into the party spirit and donned Comic Con fancy dress costumes as there is a convention currently being held in the city Centre.

There’s good news for anyone planning a night out in the next couple of days.

While showers are expected, revellers can expect to see the mercury hit a rather pleasant 16C on Easter Sunday.

Sunny spells are predicted once more by the Met Office and it will feel warm with winds much lighter than in previous days.

Brits can expect a high of 15C in southeast England while in northern England and eastern Scotland it will be slightly cooler with temperatures reaching 13C.

Easter Sunday will also see showers, with the worst of these centred around the southwest.

It will be a chilly start to the day, the Met Office says, but it will warm up with more brighter spells with temperatures hitting a very pleasant 16C in central and southern parts of England, while northwest England will see a top temperature of 15C.

It will mostly be fine on Monday too, with the northern parts of the UK seeing the driest conditions and northwest Scotland getting the best of the sunshine.

South and south-eastern parts of England though could see further rain and there is a small chance could end up being much more widespread across England and Wales.
