Laura and David Rowles have until 2 April to apply for necessary licenses
The directors of Mannin Music say there's a 'general feeling' in Peel that things don't happen in the town and why that is, is 'unclear'.
Business owners Laura and David Rowles say concerns about the proposed beach stage hadn't been raised by Peel Commissioners until this Wednesday (25 March), when the clerk called to pass on comments from the board.
The pair suggested the idea to Commissioner Katryna Baptist and the shop is partnering with the local authority for the trial of the stage as well as helping organise acts.
They added that meetings with Ms Baptist and Commissioner Stuart Hardingham have been 'positive'.
Mrs Rowles says people have been stopping her in the street encouraging them to carry on with the stage.
Local Democracy Reporter Emma Draper has been speaking to her and Mr Rowles:
