R3 Soundsystem — It takes place on March 28 in London’s Trafalgar Square, with a huge line-up of DJs, artists and crews named on the line-up.
A host of DJs, musicians and club collectives including Ben UFO, Yazmin Lacey and Hot Chip have joined the line-up for a major anti-far right rally set to take place in London later this month.
On Saturday March 28, R3 Soundsystem’s House Against Hate collective will take over Trafalgar Square as thousands of demonstrators descend on central London to oppose the rise of the far right in Britain. The rally is part of a national mobilisation organised by the Together Alliance, a coalition of cultural figures and activist groups formed to push back against growing racist and nationalist movements.
The newly-released line-up also includes Benji B, Jessie Ware (appearing with Gideön), DJ Boring, Daniel Avery, Norman Jay and Horse Meat Disco, alongside collectives including Body Movements DJs, Homobloc DJs and many more.

The rally is being organised by R3 Soundsystem in association with groups including Amnesty International, Love Music Hate Racism and Choose Love, bringing together DJs, record labels, activists and nightlife organisations around a shared political message.
The collective’s three “Rs” stand for Reject, Revolt and Resist: rejecting the rise of the far right in Britain, revolting against racism in the UK and resisting corporate influence within dance music.
R3 Soundsystem founder and DJ Gideön said the demonstration was intended to revive dance music’s historic links to protest movements.
“As the racist far-right ratchets up their anti-immigration, anti-trans and xenophobic rhetoric, the UK’s recent participation in Israel’s genocide in Gaza has galvanised our dance music community,” he said.
“On 28 March we will gather in Trafalgar Square to recognise this and attempts to dismantle UK multiculturalism – we must urgently come together in resistance. Dance music has always soundtracked protest and activism. Now is the time to reboot this tradition and kick start the revolution, united as one.”
The rally forms part of the wider national demonstration organised by the Together Alliance, which has backing from cultural figures including Fontaines D.C., Kneecap and Lenny Henry, alongside campaign groups such as Stand Up to Racism, Friends of the Earth and the Palestine Solidarity Campaign.
It comes amid growing concern over the strength of far-right politics in the UK. Though the progressive Green Party has seen a surge in support following its victory in the Gorton and Denton by-election, Nigel Farage’s Reform UK currently leads most national polling ahead of the next general election, campaigning on policies including mass migrant deportations and the creation of an ICE-style immigration enforcement agency.
Far-right street movements have also shown their ability to mobilise large numbers. In September, activist Tommy Robinson – real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon – drew an estimated 150,000 supporters to London for the Unite the Kingdom rally.

According to the 2026 State of Hate report, released this week, Reform UK is expected to make significant advances in the May local elections. The report also found that two-thirds of Reform party members hold a positive view of Robinson’s movement, while a majority support policies such as banning the burqa and rolling back equality legislation.
For organisers, the March 28 demonstration is intended as both a protest and a celebration of community resistance.
Lewis Nielsen of Stand Up to Racism said: “The far right want to bring ICE to Britain and spread racism and hate. On Saturday 28 March huge numbers of us will be on the streets of London with a message to them:
“‘We’re going to stop you.’ And we’re going to do that in the best way possible – using the power of music to spread the anti-racist resistance and build unity against the far right.”
