The next People's Blockade is coming back even bigger in 2027!

The People’s Blockade of the World’s Largest Coal Port is one of the biggest — and most powerful — climate protests on Earth.

In 2026, Rising Tide is taking a strategic pause from hosting the Blockade to focus on building tactical strength and leadership, so that our movement will be stronger than ever.
Then, in February 2027… our iconic protestival will be back– a tsunami of people-power! Bigger. Louder. More effective than ever.
