Enterprise Minister says planning for 2021 starts now
The enterprise minister says the cancellation of the Festival of Motorcycling, including the Classic TT and Manx Grand Prix, is 'a huge loss' to the Island.
It was announced yesterday that the festival was the latest major event to fall by the wayside as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.
It follows March's announcement that the TT won't be going ahead this year, while the Southern 100 also had to be called off because of the outbreak.
Laurence Skelly says planning starts now to see a successful return for the event in 2021:
