Plan your Saturday around major road closures as a premium supercar tour takes to Island roads

By 3FM Published 27 June 2026

If you're planning to explore Douglas or Peel this Saturday, 27 June, it's worth knowing about some significant road closures happening as part of an exciting supercar driving experience. Petrolheadonism, a UK-based events company, is hosting an exclusive Isle of Man supercar tour, and the final leg of the journey will see prime spots across the Island temporarily closed to regular traffic.

Where and When to Expect Closures

In Douglas, the iconic Promenade walkway will be closed from the war memorial to the Bottleneck Car Park between 9am and 1pm. This gives locals and visitors a four-hour window to plan alternative routes if you're heading to the waterfront or town centre during the morning.

Over in Peel, Weatherglass Corner will be shut from midday until 5pm, which may affect those planning an afternoon visit to the historic harbour area or the beautiful West Coast scenery.

What This Means for Visitors

The supercar tour, which began on Wednesday, 24 June, showcases the Island's stunning roads to premium vehicle enthusiasts—a genuine draw for motorsport and luxury car fans. While the closures are temporary, visitors exploring Douglas and Peel on Saturday should allow extra travel time and consider using alternative routes during these peak hours.

For the best experience, plan your waterfront visits either early morning (before 9am in Douglas) or after the closures lift, and keep an eye on local traffic updates for any additional information.
