Newcastle United lift the trophy after the Carabao Cup Final
Tens of thousands of Toon fans are preparing to celebrate Newcastle United's historic Carabao Cup win on Saturday.
Supporters will gather in the city centre for an open-top bus parade from St James' Park to the Town Moor on March 29. This will be followed by a huge four-hour party at the Town Moor.
All the timings for both events can be seen here. But what does the weather have in store for all the NUFC fans who will be out celebrating?
