Leicester City celebrated their Premier League triumph in style on Saturday, with Italian classical singer Andrea Bocelli among a number of esteemed guests at the King Power Stadium.
Foxes fans were treated to free beer and 'salt and victory' crisps prior to kick-off against Everton in the club's final home game this season.
Supporters had formed a snake-like queue for merchandise stamped with a gold and white 'Premier League Champions 2015-16' sleeve badge, while souvenir scarves, flags and programmes were eagerly snapped up from stalls around the ground.
Inside the stadium, Bocelli performed a spine-tingling rendition of Nessun Dorma - the piece of Italian classical music made famous to football fans by Luciano Pavarotti at the 1990 World Cup.
Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri addressed fans before kick-off, thanking them for an incredible season.
"I want to say to you, we are the champions because you pushed us," he said.
Alongside opera, fans were treated to gospel choirs, cheerleaders and elaborate flag displays as the club celebrated the first league title in its 132-year history.
Leicester's players capped a memorable day with a 3-1 defeat of the Toffees which increased the club's lead at the top of the Premier League to 10 points.
Club captain Wes Morgan and manager Ranieri were then jointly presented with the Premier League trophy in memorable scenes at the King Power.
