Event's return announced at government conference
It's been confirmed the Isle of Man Food and Drink Festival will return next year.
Enterprise Minister Tim Johnston made the announcement at the Government Conference this morning (Wednesday 24 September).
The event was cancelled last year, with the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture saying it was moving to an 'alternative model'.
In 2026, it will take place at Noble's Park following the Manx Grand Prix and Classic TT - moving away from its former home at the Villa Marina.
It's also becoming the responsibility of the Department for Enterprise.
Mr Johnston has been speaking to Christian Jones:
