Next year's TT schedule aims to sustain current visitor numbers while promoting further growth.
That's according to Enterprise Minister Lawrie Hooper, who says the Island's current TT capacity is around 28,000 visitors at any one time.
He added that this means the Island is turning away 'potentially thousands' of visitors each year.
The Department for Enterprise expects the new schedule to encourage new visitor patterns and drive an additional 50,000 cumulative bed nights.
