mass rallies
Large public protests
Mass rallies are large public gatherings where crowds assemble to show support for a cause, leader, or movement.
The term often carries political weight—authoritarian regimes stage mass rallies to project unity and power, while protest movements use them to demonstrate popular opposition: The regime organized mass rallies in the capital.
The phrase emphasizes scale and collective energy over spontaneous assembly.
