TT 2022: No fun at the fair

There will be no funfair this TT.

The Department for Enterprise has confirmed the news today - saying they've made the decision 'not to organise its return'.

Instead, the department says it will 'create more space in central Douglas' for residents and visitors.

However, the red Arrows have been confirmed for Tuesday, June 7 - alongside a firework display that'll take place on Friday, June 10. 
 

Dr Alex Allinson MHK, Department for Enterprise, commented:

‘This news may be disappointing for some, however the decision not to run the funfair this year has been made with local people and the economy in mind. Our community, businesses and hospitality sector have been deeply affected by the pandemic, so it’s important that we take this opportunity to support all the local events and activities during the Island’s biggest event of the year.’
