Watch a compilation of beacon bonfires being set alight across Belfast as communities mark the Eleventh Night.

Footage captures towering bonfires in areas such as Meridi Street, off the Donegall Road, and Orangefield Park in east Belfast, among others across Northern Ireland.

While most events passed peacefully, the Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service responded to 72 bonfire-related incidents from Friday night into Saturday.
