IOMAC 2025 landed with style and left us buzzing with inspiration. From pre-conference pints to post-panel panoramas, this year’s schedule delivered three unforgettable days of insight, conversation, and Isle of Man magic.
We kicked off on Wednesday evening with a very well-received networking event. Delegates gathered at the Terminus Tavern to enjoy sunset views over Douglas Bay, live music, and warm welcomes. Between the clinking of glasses and casual introductions, the networking spirit ignited early.
Thursday brought the heart of the event: the Isle of Man Aviation Conference at the Villa Marina. From 08:30 sharp, aviation leaders and innovators gathered for a day of thought-provoking panels and spirited discussion. Taste Buds’ breakfast baps fuelled the morning whilst Wild Thyme kept us energised with lunch and pastries, and Davison’s ice cream made a sweet afternoon treat! With views over the promenade and brilliant speakers on stage, the day flew by.
As the sun dipped again, we boarded the historic Manx Electric Railway and wound our way to the summit of Snaefell. The views were breathtaking, and the conversation was effortless. At Victory Café, we rounded off the day with laughter, great food, and toasts to future ventures.
Friday’s “morning after” gathering brought a slower pace. Some delegates returned to the Martyn Fiddler office for one last coffee and one more conversation.
Thanks to everyone who joined us and helped make IOMAC 2025 such a success. With partners like the BBGA and support from the IOM Aircraft Registry, we couldn’t be prouder of what we achieved together.
Until next time…
