About this event
🚨On Saturday, June 14, join us in Tucson, AZ as we flood the streets with our MOTOR MARCH! Beat the heat with us and protest from your car. Or if you prefer to cheer on from the sidewalk, see the map below with our suggested protest points along the route. 🚨
In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies.
On June 14th, we’re showing up everywhere he isn’t—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings.

The Convoy: Start and Finish
You can join the convoy with your decorated vehicle at any time. For the start, simply arrive at Reid Park or any other designated staging area before 3 pm and follow the safety guidelines. Staging Areas are labeled by red car icons on the map above (click for further details).
It is suggested to arrive at Reid Park or any other designated staging areas between 2 and 3 pm; you do not have to come early to find a parking spot. Using the staging areas, there will be plenty of parking, so just come and get settled before the takeoff time of 3 pm. (ex., if you parked at El Con or a suggested side street, you may not have to get to that location before 2:45 or thereabouts.)
Everyone parked in the staging areas and at Reid Park will leave at the same time: 3 pm. Just look at your watches. There are no lead cars, no starting gun, just go! We encourage all vehicles to make at least one complete loop of the route, returning to where you started from and then dispersing.
To avoid as much congestion as we can at Reid Park (three lots: the Concert Place and Picnic Place entrances are on Country Club, and the Lakeshore Drive entrance is on 22nd), we encourage you to consider parking at one of the other staging areas identified on the more detailed live Google map. There will be no organizational meeting at Reid Park, just a place to park.

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.
