Those taking part will set off from the TT Grandstand at 11am for a parade round the Island with a visit to Rebecca House before returning to the starting point by around 1pm.

Food, drink and live entertainment will also be on display with performances from stuntman Steve Colley, Sunset Jet and Unity Dance.
