According to estimates, there were 200.1 thousand people in the area of Europe at the peak. Groups of protesters marched there from different locations in the center of Tbilisi.
The final part of the action was a concert. Popular performers performed almost impromptu on a small stage.
According to Visioner’s calculations, the largest action of protesters against the law on foreign agents so far was the demonstration on the evening of April 28. The next day, “Georgian Dream” gathered about 100 thousand people at its counter-convention.
