It is with a heavy heart that we have had to make the incredibly difficult decision to postpone the 2026 Brighton Naked Bike Ride.

As organisers, we feel we will be unable to guarantee the safety of riders, which is our main concern. This is due to a clash with another protest announced this week together with a counter protest scheduled for the same day.

This was not a decision we took lightly but amongst the committee members we felt we had no choice.

Brighton has a long and proud history of making our voices heard on many issues that affect us and we propose to postpone the ride rather than cancel entirely. We hope to announce a date in the late summer to early Autumn to ride again. We are particularly sad as this will be our 20th ride and we're looking forward to making it the best yet. This can still be the case with your support.

We are still looking for more help in our small committee of dedicated folk who work hard every year to ensure the ride can go ahead. There is much work behind the scenes to ensure you have a safe and joyful experience in a very important protest against fossil fuel culture in particular. This year, events have shown us that we cannot continue to rely on fossil fuels to drive the planet. There are alternatives and we must make this clear in our protest going forward.

So please keep up to date here where we will post news on when we might be able to ride again.

Thank you for your support and understanding.

The Brighton Naked Bike Ride team.

Following our previous request for assistance for this year's ride, we were humbled by the responses we received and the offers of help so thank you to all that got in touch.

Hi everyone. We know you all love the ride and what it stands for. This will be our 20th ride and so wanted to make it really stand out and be special.

However, due to a number of reasons we are having to appeal for even more help this year. You may not be aware of the enormous amount of work that goes into hosting the event and assume it just happens. Below is a summary of what we need to make it a safe and successful ride. If you are local and have some skills that would be useful to the ride then please get in touch. It would be preferable to join us in our organiser's meetings.

Otherwise we would consider people further afield who could participate in video calls during our meetings. The best way to get in touch is via Messenger through Facebook so we urgently seek your help as otherwise we will have no choice but to postpone the ride until next year. Thank you.

Urgent Call: Brighton Naked Bike Ride 2026 at Risk Without Volunteers

Brighton, UK – One of Brighton’s most iconic and eye-catching events could be forced to cancel in 2026 unless new volunteers step forward.

The Brighton Naked Bike Ride, known for its bold celebration of cycling, environmental awareness, and body positivity, is currently in jeopardy due to a shortage of organisers. The small team behind the event is appealing to the local community to help keep the ride alive.

Without additional support, the volunteer-run event may not be able to meet the planning, safety, and coordination requirements needed to go ahead.

Organisers are urgently seeking people willing to attend occasional meetings in person or join Zoom calls to assist with essential tasks, including:

Liaison with police and Brighton & Hove City Council
Website support and digital communications
Event set-up and take-down
Marshalling riders on the day
Health and safety coordination
Route guidance and participant support
Body painting for riders
“This is a much-loved Brighton event that simply can’t happen without community support,” said a spokesperson. “We need more people to step in now, or the ride may not go ahead in 2026.”

The Brighton Naked Bike Ride has long drawn participants and spectators from across the UK, contributing to the city’s vibrant cultural scene. Organisers stress that even a small amount of time or specific skills can make a crucial difference.

We have got a provisional date for the WNBR Brighton so save 13th June 2026 in your diaries.

We will now spend the next few months planning the ride and hope to bring you the best ride yet.

If you are interested in joining the organising committee, we are always in need of extra help. We'd love to hear from anyone interested so send us a DM explaining a little about yourself and what you can offer and we will get right back to you.
