The Manx Porsche Tour forms part of the wider Isle of Man Festival of Motoring events organised by Scenic Car Tours, with the main September festival being a fast-growing annual celebration that has become a must-attend event for car enthusiasts. Since its launch in 2021, the festival has attracted hundreds of vehicles and visitors, contributing significantly to the island’s tourism and showcasing visitors our world-famous driving roads and visitor attractions.

With the annual Mini-Ford weekend in April, the respective Classic and Sports Car and Porsche Weekends in May, all in addition to the September Festival, these events are now bringing close to £1million to the local economy annually, not only in ferry and accommodation spend, but discretionary spend on souvenirs, bars and restaurants throughout these long weekends.

Kieran Line, one of the senior organisers as Scenic Car Tours, says:

“The Isle of Man offers some of the most scenic and exhilarating driving routes in the British Isles, making it the perfect backdrop for this anniversary celebration. We would like to encourage as many Isle of Man residents to come and see the cars over the weekend, free of charge – if anyone has a Porsche and wishes to join in, please contact us at admin@sceniccartours.com or see Scenic Car Tours or the Isle of Man Festival of Motoring on Facebook.”

With its combination of iconic cars, spectacular scenery, and a welcoming community atmosphere, the 25th edition of the Manx Porsche Tour promises to be a standout event for both participants and spectators.
