THE Island celebrated the turn of the new year in style with Sandown Carnival tonight (New Year’s Day).

Our readers captured stunning photos of the spectacular firework display, set off from the end of Sandown Pier.

Sandown Carnival posted on their Facebook page: "It was fantastic to welcome everyone back to a Sandown Carnival event once again!

"We hope you all enjoyed the fantastic display and we hope that you will all agree it was one of the very best!

"Many thanks to all those that attended, donated, and to all our amazing volunteers.
