The Manx Museum has cancelled this afternoon’s (Mad Sunday’s) screening of A Dangerous Addiction.
The decision has been made following changes to the TT schedule.
This morning’s showing of ‘No Ordinary Passenger’ and VIP talkshow, will go ahead at 11am on Mad Sunday as planned.
Tickets are still available for ‘No Ordinary Passenger’ at the museum shop, with all profits to the Joey Dunlop Foundation, Rob Vine Fund and the Manx Museum and National Trust.
The Manx Museum will also be open all day today.
Anyone who would like a refund on tickets bought for Sunday afternoon’s showing is welcome to obtain one from the Manx Museum Shop, although tickets bought online may be refunded by the relevant online payment.
Lynsey Radcliffe, communications manager for Manx National Heritage, said: ‘Manx National Heritage would like to thank the team at Al Jazeera, the race teams and all those who had committed to supporting this special fundraising event, which we hope to re-arrange to a later date.’
This morning’s event features an insight into the daredevil tactics of sidecar racing with former world champion Stan Dibben and TT legend Dave Molyneux, who talk about the thrills and spills of sidecar racing from the 1950s to today.
This special event includes the Isle of Man premiere of Cabell Hopkins’ short film ‘No Ordinary Passenger’ and marks the 90th anniversary of sidecar racing at the TT Races.
Stan is 87 years old and, in his varied life, he has been a professional trumpet player, electrician and sailor, as well as a highly-respected solo motorcycle racer on the GP circuits.
He worked with some of the well known names in BSA and Norton, raced the first ever Dommie Racer and helped in the world land speed record set by Donald Campbell in Bluebird.
The talk starts at 11am. Doors open at 10am.
