Moscow is braced for what the opposition claims will be the biggest demonstration in Russia for 20 years.
Tens of thousands are expected to gather in a square south of the Kremlin, in the latest show of anger over disputed parliamentary polls.
Smaller rallies are due to take place in cities across the country.
The demonstrators say Sunday’s elections - which gave Prime Minister Vladimir Putin’s ruling United Russia party a small lead - were falsified.
Hundreds of people have been arrested by the authorities during anti-Putin protests over the past week, mainly in Moscow and St Petersburg.
