Street parties to commemorate 80 years since the end of World War Two in Europe have been taking place across Wales.
VE Day events recall the huge crowds of people who took to the streets on 8 May 1945 to sing, dance and rejoice after nearly six years of war.
More than 15,000 Welsh soldiers died during World War Two and among the events to mark the day was in Connah's Quay, Flintshire, where Reg Lloyd, 95, from Hawarden was among those in attendance.
He was 14 when the war ended and remembered a "big party" at the Albert Hall in Buckley and people dancing the Spanish waltz with the lights on in the evening for the first time since the blackout.
"I think it's more important than ever, at the moment [to mark VE Day]," said hub director Naomi Horlock.
"To think about modern day conflicts and why it's so important to be kind to each other.
"That's what this is all about. It's about having some fun and remembering."
A poppy cascade made from 1,000 individual flowers knitted by the Steel Magnolias Women's Institute is also on display.
Audrey Anthony from the group said the finished result was "absolutely fantastic".
