Avenham and Miller Park were turned into a fiery display during Sunday as the Fire Garden returned to the city.

Only able to run for one day due to Storm Darragh an estimated 5,000 people saw the fires burn bright across the park.

Fire-breathing performances, fire and light installations and more took place in the heart of the city in what’s becoming an annual free event organised by Preston City Council.

The free event had been cancelled on Saturday due to strong winds and heavy rain but the Sunday went ahead as the weather improved.

Photographers Jill Cross and Sonia Bashir were there to catch a glimpse of the flames lighting up the Sunday skies.
