Arsenal are Premier League champions once again after 22 years - and the players spent Sunday evening making the most of a historic night in London.
After a season defined by resilience, consistency and belief, Mikel Arteta's squad finally had the chance to let their hair down following the club’s long-awaited return to the summit of English football.
The Gunners' triumph marks their first Premier League title since the famous Invincibles campaign of 2003/04, ending more than two decades of waiting for supporters who have seen their side come close on several occasions in recent years.
While the hard work on the pitch has been carried by the players, Arteta and his coaching staff, there was also a brief moment of respite for the wider group behind the scenes.

Staff members, players and those close to the club were able to celebrate together after what has been a demanding but unforgettable campaign.
The title party, understood to have taken place at Bacchanalia restaurant in Mayfair, included several memorable moments as Arsenal's stars marked the achievement in style.

Footage from the evening showed Arteta dancing with his players to Argentinian trap song 'La Morocha', a rare public glimpse of the Spaniard enjoying the reward for years of work in transforming Arsenal back into serious title contenders.
The Arsenal boss has often spoken about the importance of connection, culture and unity within the club, and the celebrations reflected a squad that appears closely bonded both on and off the pitch.
One of the standout moments of the night involved Declan Rice, who was seen rapping along to Vanilla Ice's 'Ice Ice Baby', as team-mates and guests joined in around him.
There was also a live performance of North London Forever from Louis Dunford, the song which has become deeply associated with Arsenal’s modern identity under Arteta.

The anthem has become a key part of matchdays at Emirates Stadium, sung by supporters before kick-off and embraced by the squad as a symbol of togetherness between the team and the fanbase.
A specially designed drinks menu included cocktails named after members of the squad, with options such as Palomodegaard, a nod to captain Martin Odegaard, Tommy’s Margarita, Mosqui’s Mojito and Trossard’s Tipple.
There were also non-alcoholic options available, including The Zubi Zero, named after midfielder Martin Zubimendi.
Despite the lively scenes, it is understood most of the playing staff headed home at a reasonable time compared to last week's celebrations.
Arteta's side still have one final major challenge ahead, with the Champions League final to come in less than a week.
The Spaniard is understood to have reminded his players of that responsibility, as the squad were able to enjoy their title success without losing focus on the chance to complete an extraordinary double.
Monday was a day off for the Gunners, giving players and staff time to recover after an emotional end to the Premier League campaign.
