70th anniversary of the event
Peel is gearing up for its 70th carnival today (6 August).
Roads around the Promenade and East Quay closed at 10am - with the grand parade scheduled to start at 2pm.
It's the first carnival for two years after an enforced break because of the Covid pandemic.
Organiser Ian Baker believes the secret to a successful event is simple:
TT electronic flag system being tested tomorrow morning
Public don't need to take any action during exercise
£4 million needed to address critical building and infrastructure issues at RDCH
Independent survey finds 'immediate investment' is needed.
'Leave your sausage at home' this TT
Ban on imports of meat and dairy products remains in place
Two Island roads reopen following diesel spills
Both the Mountain Road and the A1 between Union Mills and Ballacraine were shut for a time
Car dealer raises more than £26,000 for Rebecca House
Van Mossel Jacksons has supported the charity since 2022
