A rally in Brisbane on Sunday has marked the launch of a national tour opposing mass immigration and foreign lobbying, with participants marching through the city carrying Australian flags and political banners.

Video from the event shows a large crowd marching and chanting slogans including “End Foreign Lobbying”. Other footage shows a “NO FOREIGN LOBBYING” banner and participants wheeling a wooden coffin as a political prop.

The rally was held at Emma Miller Place in Brisbane on September 13, 2026, as part of an eight-city tour scheduled to travel through Australian capital cities between September and November.

The organisers say the tour is focused on ending mass immigration and opposing foreign influence over Australia’s political direction. Their published campaign material describes the movement as “Australia First” and calls for greater national control over immigration and political decision-making.

The tour is scheduled to continue in Darwin, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Melbourne and Sydney before concluding in Canberra in November. The organisers have described the Brisbane event as the first stop of the national campaign.

Images and video from the Brisbane rally have prompted differing reactions online, with some commenters supporting the event’s message while others have criticised its imagery and tone, including the use of a coffin as part of the demonstration.

The rally forms part of an ongoing public debate in Australia over immigration levels, national identity and the role of lobbying and political influence. The positions expressed at the event are those of the organisers and participants and do not represent a consensus view of Australians generally.
