Manx Christmas traditions bring the community together says Culture Vannin

Hunt the Wren, Cammag and White Boys among the festive events

It's helping to organise a number of the traditional festive events like Cammag, White Boys and Hunt the Wren.

They're all part of Kegeesh Ommidjagh - or the 'Foolish Fortnight'.
