Santa Dash to take place next year instead

Thu, 08 Oct 2020


This year's annual Santa Dash in Douglas has been cancelled.

Isle of Man Bank spokesman Stuart Chivers say the 2020 event would have been its 20th anniversary, but that milestone will now be marked next year instead.

Concerns had been raised over the coronavirus outbreak and supporting a gathering of so many in the wake of the pandemic would not be responsible.

The event usually sees about 150 people dress as santa run on a one-mile course in the capital.
