A crowd enjoyed an evening of classical music in Wharf Green last night.
The Last Night of the Proms was shown live on the BBC big screen, where people were invited to sit back and enjoy Beethoven, Wagner and the rousing finale of Rule Brittania.
Many of whom donned union jack bowler hats and engaged in a spot of flag waving in the best traditions of the event.
"Wharf Green and the new screen now give us the opportunity to showcase big events like this in the open air," said Carole Heneghan, of the New Swindon Company, who helped organise the screening alongside BBC Radio Swindon.
"I hope everyone really enjoyed the evening."
