We've got party hats, crackers and even a visit from Santa - and most of all, we've got nanas and grandads galore on camera.
We delved into the Sunderland Echo archives to find these photos of Over-60s Christmas parties on Wearside.
They span a period from 1979 to 1990 and an area from Pennywell to Silksworth.
See if you can spot a familiar face.
