The fireworks are scheduled to take on off Saturday night around 10pm, following the Damien Leith concert, and clear skies are predicted at this stage.
“There should be a few Celtic showers on the Friday, followed by a fine weekend,” festival committee chair Lara Gresham said.
The coloured lights raining down on the historic Standing Stones will be a spectacular sight.
The Standing Stones have also recently received new flags – raised for the first time recently and which will stand tall throughout the festival.
The Isle of Man flag, the flag of NSW and the Australian flag were among those which will now fly as a permanent fixture at the local tourist destination.
“These will stay here as a permanent monument,” Standing Stones Management Board chairperson Judi Toms said.
