Organisers of this year’s beer tent festival have revealed they’ll also provide motorbike racing.

The festival, which features outdoor watering holes and open-air boozers around the Island, has been running for a number of years.

The Manx government says last year the event saw strong growth in visitor numbers, or possibly a sharp decline, or maybe they stayed level.

A mini-festival set up by Kirk Michael alcoholic Drin Quine has been running on a bench in the sunken gardens since November 2017.
