Braving the cold January weather, 200 Filipinos came together on the streets of central London on New Year鈥檚 Day 2026 to represent the Filipino community across Britain. Community leaders, nurses, doctors, carers, teachers, solicitors, beauty queens, young Filipinos, and performers — the group reflected the diverse and vibrant histories and contributions that make up the Filipino presence in the UK.
Some 8,000 participants from 20 countries joined the parade, considered as one of the biggest New Year’s day events in the world.
Filipinos鈥� participation in the London New Year鈥檚 Day Parade was both a celebration and a statement of presence 鈥� Filipinos are here, contributing, and proud to be seen. Organised by Errol Isip with the help of community leaders in different fields, the delegation was supported by Filipino businesses.
