Which Isle of Man town hosts the annual World Tin Bath Championship?

The World Tinbath Championships take place annually in Castletown Harbour on the Isle of Man. Castletown is a town geographically within the parish of Arbory and Castletown, but administered separately. Lying at the south of the island, it was the Manx capital until 1869. The centre of town is dominated by Castle Rushen, a well-preserved medieval castle, originally built for a Viking king.

The event is organised by The Castletown Ale Drinkers Society and sponsored by local breweries, with support from the Isle of Man Department of Tourism. It raises money for local charities. Each year there are over 100 competitors and teams from the Isle of Man and elsewhere.

Although the event is run as a fun day, the competition is fierce and strict rules are in place to ensure a fair and safe event.

Categories are: Men's Race, Ladies' Race, Snake Race (teams), the Rope Slide and a Flying Competition in which entrants attempt to fly over the harbour with varying degrees of failure in homemade flying machines.
