RESIDENTS and visitors gathered at St John's on July 5 to witness the annual ceremony on Tynwald Hill.
Onlookers watched as 10 acts were promulgated and members of the public with an issue to raise handed in their petitions for the redress of grievance.
At the Tynwald sitting inside the Royal Chapel of St John immediately following the ceremony on the hill, Dr Brian Stowell was awarded the prestigious Tynwald Honour.
There was plenty of fun to be had at Tynwald fair with numerous organisations running stalls and the fair attracted big crowds.
Hot, dry weather made the perfect climate to celebrate the Isle of Man's National Day.
