The countdown to Christmas officially began in Dumbarton and the Vale as residents turned out at light switch on events.
The fun started in Alexandria when the lights were illuminated on Saturday, with a fun-filled day of events kicking off in the early afternoon.
It happened all over again on Sunday as residents got into the festive spirit in Dumbarton High Street.
There was lots to do for all ages with various festive activities such as Santa’s Grotto where youngsters met Santa, as well as elf workshops, balloon art, a magic show, children’s fun fair and plenty more.
There was also a host of live performances including Spice Girls and Girls Aloud tribute acts.
It marked a return to celebrations after last year’s big switch-on events were cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic and strict lockdown measures - which forced the cancellation of all live events.
