The local authority has confirmed there won't be a display this year
The chair of Port Erin Commissioners believes the money it would cost to hold a fireworks display is 'better spent' on other events.
The local authority confirmed it won't be holding a display on Bonfire Night after not budgeting for it.
While the event has been 'well-attended' in the past, the cost of a 15 minute display is estimated to be around £7,000 to £10,000, which Godfrey Egee says can be used on other events during the year.
Mr Egee says the commissioners has also considered the bay's designation as a Marine Nature Reserve:
These residents would like to see the fireworks come back to the village:
New grading system will 'drastically reduce' police exposure to indecent images
Call for referendum on wind farm proposal garners hundreds of signatures
'Several incidents' of littering, damage and graffiti reported on Port Erin beach
Poor weather stopped GNAAS responding to four Manx emergencies in the last year
