More than 100,000 trans people and allies are expected to participate in London Trans+ Pride 2026 on Saturday, July 25, under the theme 'Our Future, Our Fight'. Organizers describe this as the 'most politically urgent year in the march's history', following significant legal changes affecting trans people in the UK, including the Supreme Court ruling on the definition of 'biological sex'.
March start time and route
The march begins at Langham Place at 1pm, with the procession starting at 2pm. Langham Place is located near the BBC building and All Souls Church. The route travels south down Regent's Street to Haymarket, then along Pall Mall East and Cockspur Street, ending at Trafalgar Square. The march is expected to finish around 3:30pm, with a 10-minute scheduled stop near Swallow Street.
This is the first time the Trans+ Pride march has concluded at Trafalgar Square, a milestone for the event. London Trans+ Pride founding member Lewis G Burton said: '100k trans+ people and our allies will be descending on one of the most recognisable landmarks in the UK, and taking up that space audaciously.' Speeches are scheduled at Trafalgar Square from 4pm to 5:30pm.
Route map and speakers
A full route map is available from the organizers. The official speaker lineup has not yet been published, but last year attendees heard from actress Yasmin Finney and campaigner Caroline Litman. For 2026, messages of solidarity have come from Paul Mescal, Mel B, Zoë Garbett, Michaela Coel, Jessie Ware, Jameela Jamil, Munroe Bergdorf, Jeremy Corbyn, and Yasmin Finney, among others.
Attendance and cost
London Trans+ Pride is free to attend, with no tickets required. Participants can join for any portion of the event. The march originated in 2019 as a grassroots alternative to other Pride marches, inspired by Trans Pride Brighton, and last year became the world's largest trans pride march.
