The rally on Saturday 16 May, organised by trade union Unite, will include employees from Vauxhall, LDV, Corus, Jaguar and United Biscuits.
The campaigners want to push for more action to stop job losses in UK manufacturing, to get more state aid for business and greater protection for UK workers facing redundancy, including a short time working subsidy to keep people off the dole.
