  "No Dictators" protests were held across the state, including at the state capitol in Honolulu, on Oʻahu, which drew crowds of up to 7,000. The alternate name of "No Dictators" was chosen to avoid confusion with the King Kamehameha Day parade held the same day, an annual event honoring the first ruler of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi.
  
  On the Big Island, protests were held in Hilo, Kailua-Kona, Na'alehu, and Waimea. About a thousand people attended the protest in Waimea, while the Kona event saw hundreds of protesters.
  
  Protests in Kahului, Maui and Līhuʻe, Kauaʻi, drew crowds of about 1,000 protesters.
