BBCPeople have been urged to take appropriate precautions to prevent a rise in sexually transmitted infections.
Figures showed an 80% rise in recorded infections in the weeks following the 2024 Isle of Man TT, with attendances island's sexual health centre rising 217%.
Director of public health Matt Tyrer said sexual health was an "important topic and not one that should be shied away from".
A campaign has been launched to raise awareness of the precautions that should be taken and encourage people to look out for their friends on a night out.
The public health directorate said it aimed to encourage healthy practices and highlight the consequences of unplanned pregnancies and contracting a sexually transmitted infection (STI).
Dr Tyrer said: "It's time we talked more openly about the local support that's available and the simple ways that people can look after their sexual health."
During TT week information and advice will be on offer at Bushy's TT Village in Douglas and free condoms will be available at some TT "social hotspots".
The Manx Integrated Sexual Health clinic in Douglas is open from 09:00 to 17:00 BST.
