Share and Follow


Inauguration festivities will begin in full force Saturday as President-elect Trump and his allies — and protesters — arrive in Washington ahead of Monday’s inauguration of the 47th president of the U.S. 

Trump is expected to arrive at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, and he will later host a reception and fireworks display at his Virginia golf course. There will also be a Cabinet reception and dinner for Vice President-elect Vance at the National Gallery of Art on Saturday evening.

The D.C. People’s March, organized by several activist groups, is also slated to kick off Saturday morning across the city. It will culminate in a rally outside the Lincoln Memorial at 3 p.m., and about 50,000 people are expected to attend.

On Sunday, Trump will host a rally at Capital One Arena in downtown Washington, where allies such as tech billionaire Elon Musk are expected to deliver remarks. The Village People, Kid Rock and Billy Ray Cyrus are also set to perform. 

Although Saturday is expected to be balmy, Monday’s inauguration ceremony was moved inside the Capitol as freezing temperatures and a snow storm are expected to envelop Washington later in the weekend.

Follow along below for the latest updates as Inauguration Day approaches.
