Transgender protesters in Wellington plan to rally against an anti-trans event featuring Brian Tamaki, Bob McCoskrie, and Simon O'Connor.

Transgender protestors in Wellington plan to rally against an "anti-trans" event titled "UNSILENCED: Middle New Zealand on ideology" taking place at the Tākina Convention Centre on Saturday. Event speakers, including Destiny Church Leader Brian Tamaki, Family First’s Bob McCoskrie, and former National MP Simon O'Connor, are accused of being "hostile to trans people". Te Papa, which manages the convention centre, and the Wellington City Council are reviewing security and health and safety arrangements to assess whether the event can take place safely.
