Red Arrows to return for Isle of Man TT races

The famous jets are set to perform over Douglas Bay on 7 June

The Red Arrows are set to return to Manx skies later in summer.

The Royal Airforce Aerobatics Team will perform over Douglas Bay on 7 June, during the Isle of Man TT race week.

The display is due to take place over Douglas Bay at 19:30 BST, the Department for Enterprise has confirmed.

Appearing later in the festival than in previous years, the team will entertain racing fans on the Friday TT bank holiday, which was previously Senior Race Day.

A change to the race schedule last year saw that race moved to Saturday instead but the Manx public holiday retained.

The department also confirmed the traditional TT fireworks display over Douglas Bay will also be returning to mark the end of the 2024 event.

A spokeswoman said the “crowd-pleasing display” would be “lighting up the skies” in the island's capital from 23:00 on 8 June.
