Summary
500 tickets for the Haworth-area gathering on Penistone Hill sold out in 90 seconds as fans in red dresses assembled in Brontë Country for the annual Mass Wuther.
Thousands worldwide join the July event each year, re-creating Kate Bush's 1978 'Wuthering Heights' video inspired by Emily Brontë's novel.
Australia, Canada, Norway and the US were among the countries represented in West Yorkshire, with some attendees traveling long distances to dance on the moorland near Top Withens.
Folkestone, Bristol and Clevedon also staged UK events, while proceeds from the Yorkshire gathering were split among Women's Aid and local Brontë Country and bridleway charities.
