They're heading to the UK this weekend
Manx Concert Brass has become the first band from the Island to compete in the highest section of a regional competition.
Members are heading to Blackpool to take part in the North West Regional Championships this weekend.
While there are a number of levels of the championships, this is the first time a Manx band's reached the top section.
Ian Clague MBE is leading the band:


Crash which closed the Mountain Road ahead of racing 'not too serious'
TT campers in 'high spirits' despite rain affecting race week
Influencers told 'get your facts right' about Island's speed limits
