Georgian March (Georgian: ქართული მარში, romanized: kartuli marshi, GM) is a far-right political party and social movement in Georgia. It was founded as an NGO in 2017 following the protests of the same name and transformed into a political party in 2020 ahead of the parliamentary election in the same year. The party is led by Sandro Bregadze.
Georgian March was formed as a nativist social movement for the purpose of furthering anti-immigration legislation. It was primarily known for its rallies and protests. It notably staged an anti-immigration rally on Tbilisi's David Agmashenebeli Avenue in 2017 and took part in the 2018 Georgian protests against the drug liberalization. In the 2020 Georgian parliamentary election, the party received only 0.3% of vote, after which its activities subsided. In 2022, the Georgian March aligned itself with the Alliance of Patriots of Georgia by joining the APG-led United Front of Georgian Patriots.
