October 18, 2025: No Kings Orange County
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18 • 2-5 PM
Centennial Park
3000 W Edinger Ave
Santa Ana, CA 92704
In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings.
On October 18th, the OC Indivisible Coalition, 50501 Orange County, and WAVE are sponsoring a day of joyful resistance and community empowerment. We'll have music from local DJs & musicians, speeches from grassroots organizers, free sign-making & peaceful protest along the sidewalk, and community organizations for you to connect with to take action and transform Orange County into the place we know it can be - where each person is valued and has all they need to live an abundant, free life.
Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, carried by millions in chants and on posters, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.
The president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption, and cruelty. Grow our movement and join us.
A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.
RSVP on Mobilize (optional -- use a throwaway email address if you must, but it's helpful for us to estimate how many people are planning to come!)
