The Department for Enterprise has today confirmed the final schedule for the 2023 Isle of Man TT Races.

The 2023 Isle of Man TT Races will run from Monday 29^th May (Bank Holiday Monday which includes a full day of qualifying) until Saturday 10^th June, with the first race on Saturday 3^rd June. The Senior TT Race is now planned to take place on Saturday 10^th June.

The Isle of Man Government has also confirmed that although Senior Race day has now moved, Friday 9^th June will remain as a Bank Holiday that shall be known as the ‘TT Bank Holiday’. A full copy of the schedule is available on https://iomttraces.com

The new 10 race schedule for 2023 will hopefully drive the long term sustainability of the event delivering a range of benefits that include:

• Increasing overall visitor numbers and economic benefit by creating two long weekend options for visiting fans, most of whom prioritise time off work when deciding to attend events.
• Filling the accommodation capacity towards the end of the racing programme that will in turn give visitors greater flexibility and further benefit accommodation providers where currently over 65% of fans have left before the Senior TT.
• Reducing the duration of race days, lessening the impact on residents as well as reducing the demand on volunteers and officials, including marshals, teams, and competitors
• Improved offering for race fans with more racing and both feature Superbike Races positioned in prime viewing times (weekend afternoons).

 

The Department’s decision to proceed with the schedule was made based on the extensive research previously carried out including two separate public consultations, as well as the clearly identified benefits that align with the TT’s overarching strategy and mission ‘to deliver a sustainable world-class TT that increases the economic benefit to the Isle of Man’.
