As the Trump administration continues its military operations abroad and fails to address domestic issues, Orlando is set to see at least three peaceful 'No Kings' rallies this Saturday. The protests, organized by the national No Kings coalition, are part of over 3,100 similar events planned across the U.S. to challenge what organizers call 'abuses of power' by the Trump administration.

Why it matters

The No Kings protests reflect growing public opposition to the Trump administration's policies, including its military interventions, crackdown on immigration, and efforts to undermine democratic institutions. The rallies also come as some Democrats have scored unexpected electoral victories in Republican-leaning districts in Florida, suggesting cracks in the administration's political support.

The details

The No Kings protests in Orlando will take place at three locations: Baldwin Park at 10 a.m. for seniors, downtown Orlando City Hall at noon, and Baldwin Park again at 5:30 p.m. Organizers say the events will be peaceful and advocate for 'nonviolence.' The protests follow earlier No Kings rallies in Orlando in June and October 2025 that drew hundreds of attendees.

  • The No Kings protests in Orlando are scheduled for this Saturday, March 29, 2026.
  • Previous No Kings protests in Orlando were held in June and October 2025.

What they’re saying

“When I stood at the first No Kings rally, we were fighting to protect democracy at home, against federal agents and troops that were deployed on American streets, against a government that was manufacturing a crisis to justify using its power against its own people.”

— Naveen Shah, Representative, Common Defense

“The Trump administration made a terrible miscalculation that we would cower and capitulate in response to their chaos and cruelty, that we would put up with our healthcare getting slashed, with gas prices and utility bills going through the roof, while they shower billionaires in tax cuts.”

— Katie Bethell, Representative, MoveOn

“It is our right and our duty to challenge these unprecedented threats to our rights and liberties and defend the future of our country.”

— Deirdre Schifeling, Representative, ACLU

What’s next

The No Kings protests in Orlando this Saturday are expected to be among the largest single-day nonviolent nationwide demonstrations in U.S. history, with over 3,100 events planned across the country.

The takeaway

The upcoming No Kings protests in Orlando reflect the growing public opposition to the Trump administration's policies, particularly its military interventions abroad and efforts to undermine democratic institutions at home. The rallies also come as some Democrats have scored unexpected electoral victories in Republican-leaning districts in Florida, suggesting cracks in the administration's political support.
