Where to Ride in Westminster

Local Events 

The City of Westminster is delighted to be taking part in the inaugural London Cycling Festival on Sunday 25 May! Organised by the Zero Emissions Network and London Cycling Campaign, the event will see cycling activities across the borough and beyond on Sunday 25 May from 11am - 4pm. 

In Westminster, there will be activities promoting the Council’s cycling services in the following locations:

• Queen’s Park Gardens - Find out more about Try Before You Bike, a loan cycle service that offers free trials for local residents.
• Church Street - Join the fun in Church Street turned into a Play Street between 12-3pm where you can take part in a Joy Riders’ learn to ride taster session
• Sussex Gardens - Check out the new Tulip Wands adorning the cycle lane
• Soho Square - Enjoy a free lunchtime jazz concert in Soho Square performed by a talented Royal Academy of Music trio.

There will be family-friendly led rides linking the Westminster venues, ending in the City in Guildhall Yard for entertainment, food and much more. If you don’t have a bicycle, no problem! Thanks to Lime bikes and Santander Cycles you will be able to join the rides with a code available on the day, free to discover your local neighbourhood and enjoy the benefits cycling brings throughout Westminster and beyond. The event map is live and being updated weekly.
