Across the borough, people came together to mark eight years since the end of World War Two in Europe, with a number of beacons being lit in towns and villages.
Doncaster Central Labour MP Sally Jameson said: “A special evening attending the beacon lighting in both Armthorpe and Tickhill to mark the 80th Anniversary of VE Day.
"A time for me personally to remember my lovely grandad who fought in the Navy during the Second World War.
“Thanks to Tickhill Town Council and Armthorpe Parish Council and Community Centre for putting tonight’s events together.”
Meanwhile, in the city centre, the Mansion House was lit up in the colours of the Union flag to mark the occasion.
Earlier in the day, civic dignataries gathered on the building’s steps to honour those who lost their lives in conflict.
