Tynwald Day (Manx: Laa Tinvaal) is the National Day of the Isle of Man usually observed on 5 July (if this is a Saturday or Sunday: the following Monday).On this day the Isle’s legislature Tynwald meets at St John’s instead of its usual meeting place Douglas. The session is held partly in the Royal Chapel of St John the Baptist and partly in the open air on the adjacent Tynwald Hill (an artificial mound).
