Take Back the Night 2024 

May 2nd, 2024 at the Barrie Rotunda in City Hall at 6pm

Take Back the Night is a protest, rally, and march that demands an end to sexual assault and gender-based violence. First brought to the streets in Vancouver, Canada in 1978, Take Back the Night continues annually across the country and internationally to protest violence against women in all forms. 

We march to raise our voices. Violence against women must end.

We march to take back the night, to move safely through our communities.

We march in solidarity to show our support for equity, safety, and autonomy for all peoples, recognizing the oppression of women as interconnected with all forms of oppression.
