Orange County CA Protests & Events This Week (Mar 30-Apr 6, 2026)

Last updated on 

Dear Greater Orange County:

Thanks for coming out to No Kings 3 on Saturday! With over 8 million joining in an historic day of protest, the third No Kings saw more than one million more attendees and 600 more events than the October mobilization. What now? At the March 31 Mass Call, you’ll hear from leaders and fellow local activists to celebrate this historic mobilization and dig into what comes next: https://www.mobilize.us/nokings/event/922682

We are also still raising funds to help defray the costs associated with organizing this volunteer-coordinated event: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/nokingsoc030826

There's more: On May 1, 2026, workers, students, and families will rally, march, and take action across the country to demand a nation that puts workers over billionaires, with many refusing business as usual through No School. No Work. No Shopping. Learn more at: https://maydaystrong.org/

See below for your opportunities this week to continue getting out, make connections, and start taking action! This weekly schedule includes protests, city council/school board meetings, community-oriented activities and mutual aid drives for basics & essentials.

Event listings are collected from community groups across Orange County and do not imply endorsement. Assess your own risk before participating!

Please note: The Rally for Democracy will now take place at rotating locations every Sunday except the last Sunday of each month, where we hold our food drive at the Really Really Free Market Anaheim.
