APPLICATIONS CLOSING SOON FOR 2026 OFFICIAL TT CHARITY PARTNER OPPORTUNITY

Applications are closing soon – charities have until Monday 30th June to apply. The Isle of Man TT Races is inviting applications for its Official Charity Partner for 2026, offering one registered charity the exclusive opportunity to harness the global power of the TT to drive real-world impact.

From its origins in 1907, the TT has grown into one of the world’s most iconic motorsport events, followed by millions of fans across continents. But beyond the racing, the TT is deeply rooted in the Isle of Man’s community, and we believe in using the TT’s international platform to give back, support causes that matter and help inspire positive change.

That’s why, each year, we will be partnering with a charity whose values align with our own, helping them share their story, amplify their message, and connect with a passionate global audience.

Alongside our Official Charity Partner programme, the TT will continue to work with and support longstanding charity partners that provide essential services and support to the event - including those organisations who contribute directly to the safety, care, and wellbeing of riders and fans.

OFFICIAL CHARITY PARTNER

As the Official Charity Partner for TT 2026, you’ll gain unrivalled access to the TT’s extensive reach, both online and on the ground. That includes

  • Exposure via the TT’s digital channels (website and social media)
  • Opportunities for on-event presence and activation, including Tradesite access
  • Use of the Official Charity Partner logo and approved branding
  • Collaborative storytelling and fundraising campaigns
  • Opportunities for press and media coverage alongside TT content
  • Whether it’s through branded content, rider support, interactive activations, or direct community engagement, the TT will work with you to create meaningful touchpoints that deliver lasting awareness and support for your cause.
