Hundreds of children and their families had a special night at Chester Zoo.

Two-hundred special guests were invited to an early taste of Christmas at a festive light and sound show at Chester Zoo.

Many of the families invited have children who are supported by charities which provide vital care for children with life-limiting conditions.

Liverpool Zoe's Place, The Joshua Tree and Hope House Hospice were invited along.

One parent said the event was "magical".
