The third World Naked Bike Ride in Brighton & Hove will take place in the morning of Saturday 7 June 2008. Over 200 riders took part in 2007, 160 in 2006, and more are expected in 2008. As of the 2007 ride, and following negotiations with Sussex Police, full nudity is permitted at the event. People participating in the Brighton & Hove ride will be able to join the London ride which is now scheduled for the following weekend.

The ride also celebrates Brighton's status as a Cycle Demonstration Town.
