The TT Funfair returns this week on Douglas promenade with a new ride.
The promenade walkway on Loch and Harris promenades will close shortly as the fair sets up this week and will officially open on Thursday, running until Sunday, June 7.
Last year’s star attraction was the Booster Maxx which is the tallest transportable looping ride in the UK and will return. But there will also be a new ride with the Jumping Crazy Frog.
The fair has been around for 35 years and operators De Koning Funfairs and Taylors Cumbria Amusements will offer up extreme rides and others for the youngsters.
