Anti-racism protests are expected to continue for the fourth week in a row this weekend in London.
Here’s when and where they’re happening so you can join in.
What time is the Black Lives Matter protest?
There are three main protests happening today in London.
The first is at 1pm in Hyde Park, which is going to be similar to previous Saturday marches.
The second protest will be the Black Tie March, held at 2pm in Parliament Square.
The third is going to start at the US Embassy in Vauxhall at 1pm.
Black Tie March is “to march for every black soul wronged” with protestors encouraged to wear their best black tie clothing.
Organisers are warning protesters that they need to mask up and remember coronavirus social distancing measures – bring hand sanitiser and stay safe.
Where is the BLM protest being held?
The Black Tie March protest will start at 2pm at Parliament square, meet at 2:30 at Buckingham palace and then finish at Trafalgar Square.
There is also a report from MyLondon that there will be a march in Vauxhall starting at 1pm that will then march on Parliament Square for 4pm.
The Hyde Park protest will be around Speakers Corner and Marble Arch at 1pm.
Is there a dress code?
Yes! The Black Tie march is going to be quite the occasion.
Protesters are going to be going out dressed to the nines. It’s going to be like Ascot with signs, music, chanting and riot police.
There is limited detail on the Hyde Park and Vauxhaull dress codes, so we’re assuming there isn’t one.
