Large Manx contingent heading to Lorient
An international celebration of Celtic culture kicks off this weekend, with a Manx twist.
The Lorient Interceltique Festival is celebrating the Isle of Man and Cornwall as its joint honoured nations for the first time in its 45-year history.
The festival welcomes more than 800,000 people to Brittany in France annually and there'll be more than 100 Manx performers there this year.
Culture Vannin Director Breesha Maddrell says most Manx people aren't aware how big the festival is:
Almost 3,000 take part in Pilates world record attempt at Knockaloe
Ben-my-Chree sailing cancelled due to 'technical issues'
81 'unsafe squishy toys' seized
Manx Utilities open 'prior information notice' for Garff Sewage Treatment works
