In pictures: the No Trousers Tube Ride 2026 in London

Doesn’t this cold, miserable weather make you just want to whip your trousers off and walk around London bare-legged? TBH, us neither. But that’s what hundreds of folk did on Sunday (January 11) afternoon as part of the annual No Trousers Tube Ride. 

There’s no charity or political cause behind the event – it’s purely for the sake of fun and giving other commuters a bit of a laugh. ‘Fun lovers, exhibitionists, bucket list tickers, and inquisitive introverts alike’ all gathered in Chinatown, bottoms still firmly on, before splitting off into smaller groups and heading into surrounding Underground stations, where they ditched the trousers. Then they filled tube carriages and just travelled around for a bit. 

If you weren’t in central London to see the bizarre spectacle (perhaps for the best), here’s a glimpse at what you missed.
