Million Women Rise 2026
Women gathering in London to stand together against male violence, in solidarity and resistance
On Saturday, 7 March 2026, women will gather in Central London for the 19th Annual Million Women Rise March and Rally, held on International Women’s Day.
Led and organised by women, Million Women Rise is a long-standing movement calling for an end to all forms of male violence against women and girls - violence that happens every minute of every day, often unseen and unacknowledged.
This is an all-women event. A space for solidarity, remembrance, resistance, and collective strength.
Why this matters
Million Women Rise centres women’s lived realities - from domestic and sexual violence to state-sanctioned harm - and creates space where women can come together without apology, without minimisation, and without being reduced to statistics.
The march is about being seen, being heard, and knowing you are not alone.
Accessibility and care
An access bus will travel the full march route to Trafalgar Square
Stewards will be present throughout
BSL interpreters at the rally
Children are welcome
Clear information will be shared ahead of the day
If attending feels overwhelming
You are not expected to do this alone.
If the idea of attending feels emotionally heavy, physically tiring, or just a lot - M.Y.H would love to organise a small group so we can:
Arrive together
Walk together
Take breaks when needed
Look out for one another
There is no “right” way to show up. Standing at the edge, walking part of the route, or simply being present is enough.
You Don’t Have to Go Alone
If you’d like to be part of a Make Yourself Heard group for the march - quietly supported, pressure-free - let us know. We’ll organise connection points closer to the date. Drop us a message to express interest.
We rise together. At our own pace. With care.
