A National Service of Remembrance will be held this weekend to mark the 50th anniversary of the Summerland disaster.
It will take place at 4pm on Sunday at St George’s Church in Douglas.
The event is open to the public, who are welcome and encouraged to join proceedings.
Officers have been in touch with a number of survivors and victims’ relatives in recent weeks, with some set to visi the Island to be present at Sunday’s anniversary service.
A Book of Commemoration has been created to mark the occasion, containing the names of the 50 people who lost their lives.
Those unable to attend the service can follow proceedings online as they happen on a live stream hosted by St George’s Church, which will be available to view here.
It will remain available to view after the event on the Isle of Man Government Youtube channel.
