Collectives, feminist organizations, 8M assemblies of the neighborhoods and towns of Madrid join forces again this year under the umbrella of the Madrid 8M Commission to take to the streets this Saturday, March 8, 2025. On this occasion, and as some may have seen yesterday in the program La Revuelta, it will be at 12 noon when the feminist demonstration will take place, marching under the slogan “Anti-racist feminists, take to the streets! Our lives depend on it”.
The purple tide will follow the following route: it will leave from Atocha to continue along Cibeles and will have as its destination Plaza de España. Afterwards, a feminist evening will be held -which we will talk about in detail later- at the Templo de Debod with performances by renowned artists.
This 2025 there will be another demonstration called for the same date: the transsexual demonstration of the Feminist Movement of Madrid, which will go from Cibeles to Plaza de España and will start at 6 pm.
