The Chairman of the Tynwald Setting Enhancement Sub-Committee says there will be something for everyone to enjoy at this year's Tynwald Day celebrations.
President of Tynwald, Noel Cringle, says the committee works to arrange events and displays to add to and enhance the formal proceedings of the open air Tynwald ceremony which takes place this year on 7th of July.
Whilst delighted that there will be new events to enjoy, some aimed particularly at younger people, at what will be a royal Tynwald Day this year, Mr Cringle says the aim certainly isn't to make the national day a day of two halves:
Motorists urged to find alternative route home following crash
Car tax demand at vehicle testing centre 'causing a few problems'
Reinstating horse tram tracks will cost almost £2 million
Businesses under threat from Steam Packet freight surcharge says Chamber
Section of Douglas Promenade reopens following RTC
