Islanders are being urged to support a long established tradition later today (Thursday).
Laa Columb Killey takes place in Arbory in the field opposite the primary school in Ballabeg.
The procession from the Parish Hall to the field starts at 2.30pm before Hampton Oates officially opens proceedings and crowns the festival princess.
But that’s only the start, as event president Noel Cringle explained:
