City streets were lined with people as they welcomed the Glasgow Taxi Outing Fund parade in George Square.
Hosting their 76th event, the parade saw taxi drivers volunteer to take children with additional support needs to Troon for a great day out and create memories that would last a lifetime.
Having started in 1945, the tradition has been passed on through many generations and is always a well-received event by the people of Glasgow.

With the rain pouring down, the taxis were still brightening people’s days as they hooted and tooted their way through the city.
Dougie McPherson, chairperson of Glasgow Taxis, said: "The rain couldn't dampen the spirits of the Tartan Army on Tuesday night and it was exactly the same at Kelvin Way on Wednesday morning - more than 120 taxi drivers doing the city proud as they set off for sunny Ayrshire.
"A huge thanks goes to the Glasgow Taxi Outing Fund who are the driving force behind this Glasgow institution, and all the other supporters and volunteers too, not to mention our friends in Troon.
“Finally but most importantly, we hope the children have another day to remember - as at the end of the day it's all about them."
From Shrek to stormtroopers, Batman to Mario, all the drivers had put in the time and effort to make it a fantastic event for those to witness passing by.
But the biggest smiles were on the children in the cabs as they got the chance to go on potentially a trip of a lifetime.
The big journey to the West Coast started at Kelvin Way before taking a tour of the city to show off the taxis and make the children feel like superstars.
Shawlands was the last port of call before heading down the M77 and leaving the rain behind, with the group arriving at Troon around 12.30pm.
The trip was supported by Glasgow Taxis Ltd, Celtic FC Foundation, Laurie Ross Insurance, Girvans of Troon and Butchershop Bar & Grill who have been thanked for making it happen.
