15 photographs from Boston Bike Night 2025

A popular, annual bike bonanza returned to Boston on Thursday (July 3), attracting thousands of visitors.

Boston Bike Night once again brought a vast array of wheeled wonders to the town centre.

The long-running event almost disappeared from the town’s events calendar last year.

In November 2023, the previous organisers revealed that year the 2023 event – the 25th Boston Bike Night – would be their last. Operating costs, they said, had become ‘too high’.

In January, 2024, though, it was announced a new team had taken on the showcase, saving it for 2024.

This year’s event featured more than 5,000 motorbikes, plus dozens of trade stalls.

Nathan Bryant, event manager, said: “It’s been a huge task, and at times a challenging one, but seeing the town centre filled with thousands of people, all coming together to celebrate something they love, has made every bit of hard work worthwhile. I'm beyond proud of what’s been achieved, and thankful to everyone who supported the event and helped make it a success.”

“It’s events like this that show what Boston can achieve when people pull together,” he added. “Bike Night is about more than just bikes – it’s about bringing life into the town, supporting local business, and giving people a reason to visit, stay, and come back.”

As in 2024, the event was held in partnership with Mental Riders – a Boston-based clothing and accessories brand, inspired by motorcycling, that strives to raise awareness of mental health.

Mark Spence, co-founder of Mental Riders, said: “This is our second year partnering with Boston Bike Night and it just keeps getting better. We’re proud to be a Boston brand that stands for more than just clothing. The biking community is a tight-knit one, and events like this show how powerful it is when we come together – not just to celebrate bikes, but to look out for one another.”

Plans for Boston Bike Night 2026 are already underway, with hopes to expand the event’s footprint, introduce more live entertainment, and bring in additional community involvement.

Anyone interested in sponsoring, trading, volunteering or performing at next year’s event is encouraged to get in touch.
