The Josephian Cycle Parade 2026 was officially unveiled at a press conference held on Friday, 17th April 2026 at Embrax Colombo, marking the return of a cherished tradition in a more sustainable and socially impactful form.

In light of the ongoing fuel challenges in the country, the organising committee has taken a forward thinking and environmentally responsible decision to transform the traditional vehicle parade into a cycle parade. This initiative not only addresses current realities but also reinforces a strong commitment to eco friendly practices, while preserving the proud legacy of the event.

Organised by the St. Joseph’s College, Colombo 10 – Josephian Vehicle Parade Committee, the Josephian Cycle Parade 2026 promises to bring together Josephians, well wishers, and the wider community in a vibrant celebration of unity, tradition, and social responsibility.

Over the years, the Josephian Vehicle Parade has evolved into a signature event, strengthening the bond between past and present Josephians, while serving as a meaningful platform to support worthy causes. This year’s edition, reimagined as a cycle parade, is set to deliver an energetic and creative experience, fostering participation and community spirit alongside impactful fundraising and awareness initiatives.

The organisers proudly announced CK Orbits – Dubai as the Main Sponsor of the event, with Soqka Batik joining as an Event Partner for 2026.
