The Isle of Man is back in the frame for hosting the 2029 Island Games.
If successful it would mark the third time that we’ve hosted the multi-sport event, which would bring more than 4,000 people over, and an economic boost of around £3.5m.
The Islands suitability is currently being assessed, by the Island Games’ Chairman Jörgen Pettersson.
