Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th President of the United States is scheduled for January 20th, 2025, at the US Capitol in Washington, DC. The entertainment line-up for the event, previously kept under wraps, has now been revealed.
The inauguration festivities will commence next weekend with a fireworks display at Trump’s golf club in Sterling, Virginia, followed by a campaign-style rally in D.C., a visit to Arlington National Cemetery, and various dinners leading up to Trump’s second swearing-in ceremony.
Joe Biden is expected to attend the inauguration. In a statement, Steve Witkoff and Kelly Loeffler, co-chairs of the inaugural committee, emphasized Trump’s commitment to uniting the country through his America First agenda. Witkoff, Trump’s choice for Middle East envoy, and Loeffler, the former Georgia senator nominated to lead the Small Business Administration, wrote, “The 2025 inaugural celebrations will reflect President-elect Trump’s historic return to the White House and the American people’s decisive vote to Make America Great Again.”
On Saturday, Trump will attend the fireworks at Trump National Golf Club, while Vice President-elect JD Vance will participate in a reception for incoming Cabinet members. Sunday’s schedule includes a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery and a “MAGA Victory” rally at Capital One Arena in Washington.
The musical performances feature country singer Lee Greenwood and opera singer Christopher Macchio, both favorites of Trump. Country superstar Carrie Underwood will also perform “America the Beautiful” just before Trump takes the oath of office.
