Celebrations for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee are taking place across the Island over the coming weeks.
 
Local authorities could claim up to £5,000 of government assistance for events.
 
With the Jubilee Bank Holiday falling in the middle of TT fortnight, some local authorities have opted to celebrate later in the year – Andreas, are having a picnic for all the family in National Week, and Ramsey will be holding a Royal Picnic in the Park in July, and a Royal Ramsey Rocks in August.
 
Marown are also celebrating a little later.
 
In addition, German Commissioners are presenting commemorative mugs to students of the parish’s schools, and of course Douglas has been awarded city status as part of Jubilee celebrations.
 
Arbory and Rushen are holding an event tomorrow (Friday) and a certain creative display is already getting attention, as chair of the commissioners, Kirree Jenkins explained:
