A quiet part of the west coast will be buzzing with activity today (Friday) and tomorrow as the Royal Manx Agricultural Show comes to town.
The annual event has set up home at Knockaloe in Patrick after many years at Sulby.
John Moss reports (play audio file below):
Police are warning motorists and pedestrians to take extra care, with more traffic than usual in the west of the Island today and tomorrow.
Diversions signs will be set up to keep traffic moving smoothly, and people who aren't going to the show are being advised to avoid the area.
The main car park for the show is on the south side of the ground, and there will be a dedicated bus service tomorrow morning from the Tynwald Inn in St John's to Knockaloe, roughly every half hour from 10am.
