It was an emotional yet awe-inspiring evening as the first ever Pride of Manchester Awards took place on Wednesday night.
The glitzy ceremony, brought to you by the Pride of Britain team, was hosted by Coronation Street actress Kym Marsh as we celebrated the region's heroes.
It was a night to celebrate the incredible stories of inspirational award winners - and those who really make Greater Manchester great.
The superstars of the evening were also joined by some other stars who you may recognise from sport, stage and screen.
Big names taking to the glitzy red carpet at the Principal Hotel in Manchester city centre included quiz star Anne Hegerty and Manchester United stars Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard.
There were also some faces from soapland including Corrie's Helen Worth, Nicola Thorp, Antony Cotton, Brooke Vincent and Sair Khan.
But of course, all eyes were on our often unsung heroes and you can see the full list of winners we revealed earlier today .
Take a look through our gallery below as the stars came out with style to a rather rainy Manchester to show support to our local heroes.
