Congratulations to the Hatters

T housands flocked to St George's Square on Sunday - to celebrate Luton Town's promotion to the Championship.

The main party kicked off when the Hatters players and officials arrived in the square from Kenilworth Road in an open-top bus.

The team and officials made their way to a private reception in the Town Hall, with season highlights playing on large screens in the Square until 2pm.

A huge congratulations to the whole Hatters team from Luton BID.
