After two years without a TT, the Isle of Man is gearing up for the event’s return in 2022. This year’s TT is currently scheduled to kick off on Saturday, May 28 and run through Saturday, June 11—and organizers, participants, and fans alike are all busy preparing. The last TT was held in 2019, and the Isle of Man government reported that over 46,000 visitors came to the island that year—the highest number since the IOM began keeping such statistics.
IOMTT attendees mostly come from the neighboring United Kingdom, although visitors do also arrive from other places. In any case, though, all these thousands of visitors have at least two things in common: A love for motorcycle road racing, and needing a place to stay while they’re at the TT. That’s one reason the Isle of Man’s Department for Enterprise is encouraging homeowners on the island to sign up for its Homestay scheme for 2022.
