TT beer tent licences extended

Pop-up beer tents during TT will now be able to operate for slightly longer.

It comes after a vote in Tynwald yesterday gave the green light for occasional licences to cover venues for up to 16 days between Saturday, May 30, and Sunday, June 14.

The original setup meant venues could have a permit for up to 14 days and the initial idea was to propose extending that to 21, however this was altered following responses in a public consultation on the concept last year.

Home Affairs Minister, Bill Malarkey MHK - who put forward the vote to court members on the matter - previously stated an extension would allow for events and entertainment at the TT to be enjoyed by visitors for a longer period.
