The Queen has taken centre stage at her historic Platinum Jubilee celebrations as she greeted crowds from the Buckingham Palace balcony on Thursday.
But despite being far away from the action many in Leeds were keen to join in the fun.
Many streets faced closures as families, friends and neighbours gathered to raise a glass to Her Majesty.
