What protests are taking place in London this weekend and the week ahead?

Demonstrators and activists will take to central London this weekend, in what has become a regular occurrence in recent months.

Two linked marches are planned. A “Together for Palestine” protest will gather on Exhibition Road, where supporters will rally in solidarity with Palestinians before moving through central London. Participants are then expected to join the larger Together Alliance march backed by Extinction Rebellion.

The Together Alliance demonstration will begin from Park Lane, bringing together climate groups, trade unions and campaign organisations in a mass mobilisation against the far right, with the two marches converging as part of a single day of protest.

Here’s what you need to know about the protest scheduled for London this weekend.

The Together Alliance demonstration, supported by Extinction Rebellion, will take place in central London on Saturday, bringing together environmental, trade union and civil society groups.

The march is framed around opposition to the rise of the far right, while also linking this to broader concerns about climate breakdown, social division and economic pressures.

Protesters will gather for the main march from 12pm on Park Lane, with the procession expected to set off at around 1pm, travelling via Piccadilly, Regent Street and Pall Mall towards Whitehall. A secondary, shorter route will assemble at 1pm near Trafalgar Square (outside Waterstones).

The event will culminate in central London with speeches and performances, and is scheduled to finish at approximately 6pm.

A separate Together for Palestine march will also take place in central London on Saturday, with organisers calling on supporters to mobilise ahead of the wider anti–far right demonstration.

The protest centres on continued solidarity with Palestinians, with participants highlighting calls for a ceasefire, humanitarian access, and an end to the ongoing conflict.

Marchers are set to gather on Exhibition Road at 12pm, where the demonstration will begin before moving through central London. Organisers say participants will then join the larger Together Alliance rally later in the day, linking the Palestine solidarity movement with broader opposition to far-right politics.
