Brits hit the town on the first night of the Bank Holiday weekend… but some get more carried away than others
BARS and pubs up and down the country were packed as Brits kick-off the Bank Holiday weekend.
Revellers hit the town last night, some in fancy dress and others dressed to the nines, making the most of the long weekend.
Party goers in Birmingham, Leeds, London and Portsmouth among others celebrated the boozy bank holiday in style.
Ladies in Leeds were snapped donning fairy wings and flower crowns as they head out, while the boys sported monk costumes and joke fat suits.
Other girls opted for zebra-print cowboy hats and fishnets to see in the Spring Bank Holiday.
Meanwhile, a group of Newcastle revellers held up their glasses in celebration of their mate’s hen-do.
The women went for the popular cowgirl theme, with the bride-to-be looking stunning in white.
Other party goers went out in classic figure hugging dresses with full glam hair and makeup.
Of course some revellers took it too far and passed out at the side of the street with mates trying to rally and keep to night going.
Birmingham boozers in Broad Street saw hoards of Brits out and about wearing more casual baggy jeans and corset tops.
A group of girls were in good spirits as they bar-hopped through the night, with some sporting Hawaiian garlands and colourful sunglasses.
Others took advantage of the warmer temperatures and donned skimpier dresses and skirts while letting their hair down to welcome the long weekend.
But, some clearly peaked too soon and could be found slumped over in bus shelters waiting for their much needed ride home.
Some London punters went out in style, dressed in formal suits and bow-ties.
Other friends could be seen fooling around in the street, much to the amusement of onlookers.
In Soho bars were packed and long queues of party goers lined the streets to get into the clubs.
This comes after Brits celebrated the King’s coronation Bank Holiday just weeks ago.
Pubs and bars across the country were packed out and the booze was flowing as revellers continued the party spirit following the dazzling coronation concert.
Even lukewarm temperatures and the odd shower didn’t dampen the high spirits.
The special bank holiday marking the coronation was just one of three long weekends in May.
