Speakers with megaphones on stage at The Block have encouraged protesters to remain "peaceful" after last year's rally became violent.
The rally was organised by grassroots Greens protesters and activists from Fighting in Resistance Equally.
Protesters are being encouraged to sign up to the Greens party and the Socialist Alliance.
