It's among many No Kings events scheduled for Wisconsin and across the country.

Wisconsin No Kings events

Local perspective:

The main event will be happening in Milwaukee at Cathedral Square Park from 2-5 p.m., but many other No Kings "Vote Early" events will be happening throughout Milwaukee and Wisconsin at large. Here are some other locations you can expect to find "Vote Early" events. 

Voters will not be able to vote on site at these events, but information will be readily available on how attendees can go home and vote. 

According to No Kings organizers, the "Vote Early" event will be a place to promote nonpartisan voter participation, bringing the community together, making plans to vote early, and helping voters understand their options on how to vote. This is in contrast to previous No Kings events, which were more focused on peaceful protesting. 

All of these events are occurring on Saturday, Oct. 17 at varying times. You can RSVP to each of these events for more information.

About No Kings and ‘Vote Early’

Dig deeper:

The No Kings theme was orchestrated by the 50501 Movement, a national movement made up of everyday Americans who stand for democracy and against what they call the authoritarian actions of the Trump administration. The name 50501 stands for 50 states, 50 protests, one movement.

The No Kings Day of Defiance has been organized to reject authoritarianism, billionaire-first politics and the militarization of the country's democracy, according to a past press release from No Kings.

Ezra Levin, a member of Indivisible, which spearheaded the No Kings events, told The Associated Press that the March 2026 No Kings protests drew at least 8 million people across the country. The previous rallies drew about 5 million and 7 million participants respectively, according to Indivisible. This would make the protest one of the largest single-day protests in U.S. history. 

According to the Mobilize mapped list by the No Kings organizers, there are at least 1,000 Vote Early events planned for Saturday. A full look at these events can be found here. 

Earlier protests organized by 50501 have rallied against Trump and his former adviser, Elon Musk, who led Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency to cut federal spending.
