No Kings Movement Returns to Minnesota State Capitol for March 28 Day of Action
The No Kings movement returns to Minnesota on March 28 with coordinated marches and a rally at the State Capitol, highlighting community action, remembrance and civic engagement.
A national movement rooted in protest, community and civic engagement returns to Minnesota on March 28, as No Kings 3 organizers call for a day of action at the Minnesota State Capitol.
The event will include three kickoff marches beginning at 12 p.m. from St. Paul College, Harriet Island and Western Sculpture Park. A rally is scheduled to follow at 2 p.m. at the Capitol, bringing participants together from across the Twin Cities and beyond.
A growing national movement
Organizers describe No Kings as part of a broader, ongoing response to political and social concerns impacting communities across the country. What began in 2025 as a single day of coordinated action has since expanded into a sustained national movement, with participation growing in both large cities and smaller communities.
At its core, the movement centers on the idea that democracy is shaped by everyday people. The message “No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.” reflects a rejection of concentrated power and a call for shared responsibility in civic life.
A day centered on reflection and action
According to event details, the March 28 gathering is intended to serve multiple purposes. Organizers describe it as a space for healing for those impacted by violence, a moment of remembrance for lives lost, and an opportunity to come together in solidarity.
At the same time, the event is framed as a call to action. Organizers point to rising costs, policy concerns and community impact as key issues driving participation, while emphasizing the importance of showing up, being present and engaging in the democratic process.
Statewide participation encouraged
Events connected to the No Kings movement are planned across Minnesota, with organizers encouraging residents to find ways to participate locally as well as in the Twin Cities.

Commitment to nonviolence
Organizers state that all No Kings events are grounded in a commitment to nonviolent action. Participants are encouraged to de-escalate conflict, act lawfully and help maintain a safe environment throughout the day. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, are not allowed at the event.
The March 28 gathering is expected to bring together a wide cross-section of community members for a coordinated day of marches, reflection and civic engagement at the State Capitol.
