The Commonwealth Games baton arrives on the Island today (Sunday) as part of its world tour before next year's event in Delhi.
The baton - which is the Commonwealths' equivalent of the the Olympic torch - will be taken around the Island's schools tomorrow.
Then on Tuesday the public get a chance to see it when some of the Island's top young athletes run a relay along Douglas Promenade, from 6pm.
Isle of Man Commonwealth Games President Juliet Holt told Tim Glover it'll be quite a spectacle.
