From Caltrain Depot at 4th and Townsend, San Francisco

Thousands honor the Selma to Montgomery Marches and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 by experiencing the MLK2026 Commemorative March/Parade from San Francisco's Caltrain Station to Yerba Buena Gardens.

The 2026 MLK March is a poignant and symbolic journey that pays homage to the historic Selma to Montgomery marches and the monumental Voting Rights Act of 1965. Spanning 1.5 miles, this commemorative march and parade begins at San Francisco's Caltrain Station and winds its way through the heart of the city, ultimately culminating at the serene Yerba Buena Gardens.

Thousands of participants, representing diverse backgrounds, join together in unity, echoing the spirit of solidarity that defined the civil rights movement. As the march progresses, it becomes a living tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s unwavering dedication to justice and equality.

The march's profound conclusion takes place at Yerba Buena Gardens, where an Interfaith Commemoration, in partnership with the San Francisco Interfaith Council, further underscores the importance of unity and faith in the pursuit of social progress. This moment of reflection and unity reminds us of the ongoing struggle for civil rights and the need to continue marching forward towards a more just and inclusive society.
