Reclaim the Night is an opportunity for everyone to get involved and speak out against gender-based violence.
Bring banners, drums, megaphones, placards, friends, songs, chants….

We encourage you to follow current Covid guidance and to maintain social distancing at the event. Anyone experiencing Covid symptoms should remain at home and follow our march on social media.
If you are unable to join us please place a candle in your window to remember all those impacted by sexual violence.
Reclaim the Night takes place across the world each year during 16 Days of Activism against gender-based violence, which runs each year from 25th November (International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women) until 10 December (International Human Rights Day).
