Participants will gather at 16:00 at Plaza San Martin and reportedly march in the downtown area via Avenida Nicolas de Pierola, Avenida Wilson, and Paseo de la Republica, before returning to their starting point.
Police will likely deploy to monitor the event. Clashes between protesters and the police are possible if demonstrators become overly disruptive or if they ignore police orders to disperse. Ground travel disruptions are possible near the march route.
