Mid-March focus on Island activities and attractions
The head of Visit Isle of Man says 'On Your Doorstep - One Big Weekend' has a tangible impact for local firms.
The event, which is run by the Department for Enterprise agency, aims to "highlight the new businesses that are opening up within the tourism sector on the Island."
There are a series of taster sessions planned for the weekend of 14 and 15 March.
When asked how the results impact those businesses year-round, Angela Byrne said she's had positive feedback:
Overnight sailings cancelled due to adverse weather
Rapist who 'terrorised' his victim told his sentence was 'entirely justified'
Complaints process for health system changed
Discovery of oiled birds 'makes a mockery of our biosphere status'
Charges now in place for those sending parcels to the EU
