Next year will see a new festival in the Island celebrating what organisers hope will be a sunny summer.
The former organising committee which ran the Isle of Woman event says the Sunset Island Festival will be held earlier in the year.
The idea is to raise cash for charity which will stay in the Isle of Man rather than going off-Island – and the new festival will be held in conjunction with the Hospice.
Organiser Christopher Barr says there’ll be a wide range of events to enjoy (audio file attached):
