REVELLERS partied through the night across East Lancashire as they welcomed in the New Year.
Police praised revellers for their good behaviour and said there were no major incidents, despite using overspill lock-ups in Clitheroe after filling the cells in Blackburn and Accrington.
Revellers congregated in the Hammerton Street area of Burnley where the neighbouring clubs The Works and Genesis were packed with party-goers.
At midnight thousands of fireworks all across the area brought the New Year in with a bang.
