Pubs and clubs in Northern Ireland will be able to stay open for longer this Easter weekend as a result of new licensing laws.
The legislation was passed last June and came into effect in October.
The changes mean permitted hours over the Easter weekend will be the same as every other weekend.
Before the changes, licensed premises were prohibited from selling alcohol after midnight on Easter Thursday and Sunday, and could only serve between 5pm and 11pm on Good Friday.
