The protest, which took place on June 8, 2026, led to significant traffic disruptions, particularly on the Straße des 17. Juni, which was fully closed between the Großer Stern and Ebertstraße. Organizers claimed attendance figures as high as 5,000, while police reported 4,000 participants. Demonstrators, many waving German flags, called for immediate government resignation, direct democracy, a halt to current migration policies, the abolition of public broadcasting fees, and stricter accountability for politicians. The event was monitored by 700 police officers.
