Wales' patron saint is being celebrated across the country with a series of special events to mark St David's Day.
In Cardiff, thousands of people are watching the national St David's Day parade, which features The Welsh Guards, dancers in traditional costume and a dancing dragon.
Cardiff Castle has also held a free day of Welsh music and entertainment.
In Pwllheli, Gwynedd, the parade had a Patagonia theme to mark 150 years of the Welsh colony in South America.
Two horses took part of the parade, with some marchers wearing ponchos and others carrying the Argentinean flag.
Prime Minister David Cameron also marked the Welsh patron saint's day by sending a goodwill message.
"I would like to extend my warmest wishes to everyone in Wales, across the UK and beyond, who'll be celebrating St David's Day on Sunday," he said.
"This special day provides us all with the opportunity to celebrate all that embodies Wales.
"A great nation which always shows pride and passion, a country rich in history with a great industrial, agricultural and cultural heritage."
