The Queen's Baton is due to arrive on the Isle of Man today in the build up to next year's Commonwealth Games in Australia.

The baton will be on the Island from today until Monday, and will visit a number of locations while here.

Members of the public will get their first chance to see the baton tomorrow at the NSC, before it heads to the Laxey Wheel, horse trams and Cregneash.

On Sunday, the baton will be at Mooragh Park, the Grandstand and Tynwald Hill.

Full details of the route can be found on the Isle of Man Commonwealth Games Association's website.
