Barbecues banned at TT spectator points

The government's banning barbecues, fires and stoves at spectator points around the TT course to prevent wildfires.

Signs have been put up by the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture around the circuit to let fans know.

However, it says if you're planning on using one during the festival, there are a number of precautions you should take - you can find out more on our website.
