UK: ‘Jesus March’ Returns to London for Pentecost

Source: Christian Today, May 2, 2026

Thousands of Christians from across the UK are set to gather in central London this Pentecost weekend for a large-scale public event celebrating the Christian faith.

The gathering, known as the Jesus March, will take place on Saturday, 23 May. The event is being coordinated by Ichthus Christian Fellowship in collaboration with a range of churches and Christian ministries.

Leaders behind the initiative are keen to view the “breadth, depth, and racial diversity” of the Church in the UK.

Organizers say the procession is expected to begin near Marble Arch and pass through Piccadilly before ending in Trafalgar Square, with a time of collective worship and prayer.

Framed around the theme “Hope in our Hearts, Joy on the Streets,” the event is intended as “a public and passionate celebration of Jesus,” bringing together believers from different church traditions, cultural backgrounds and age groups for praise and prayer in the heart of the capital.

Organizers say it comes at a time when many churches are noting a fresh surge of interest in Christianity and increased confidence in sharing the gospel.
