This year's 'Under the Pier' party in Ramsey is being held today.

The event, organised by the Friends of the Queen's Pier, is open to all and highlights the group's aim to re-open the Victorian landmark for public use.

It features all the usual attractions, including stalls, a bouncy castle and entertainment from the Mannin Folk Group.

Earlier this year, Tynwald voted unanimously to explore two options for the future of the pier which had been put forward by a working group.

Chairman of the group, Rushen MHK Phil Gawne, has said he is confident some form of refurbishment will take place.

The party is open to all and admission is free.
