World Naked Bike Ride New Orleans is continuing its streak of riding on the canonical second Saturday in June. The 18th annual ride has been set for 13 June 2026, time to be announced.
NOLA’s daytime ride usually begins and ends at Mickey Markey Park in the Bywater district. It proceeds through the French Quarter (Vieux Carre) and other neighborhoods nearby. For the past several years, the ride has been accompanied by a police escort. Full nudity is allowed, as long as riders aren’t aggressively naked.
For the past two years, representatives from Houston’s ride have participated in the NOLA ride. As June approaches, watch this space for announcements of a group trip to New Orleans from Greater Houston.
UPDATE: WNBR NOLA now has its own stand-alone website, worldnakedbikedridewnbrneworleans.org [sic, with the extra d after “bike”].
