Event will return with a new format in 2026
Manx producers say they have a certain level of optimism about the return of the Food and Drink Festival.
It hasn't been held since 2023 after the Department of Environment, Food and Agricultural decided to use the budget to 'drive new initiatives that will promote and support local producers in exciting new ways' instead.
However, last week it was confirmed the Department for Enterprise would take over its running and it will return next year to Noble's Park following the Manx Grand Prix and Classic TT.
