The inauguration of Donald Trump as the 47th president of the United States is scheduled to take place on Monday, January 20, 2025, on the West Front of the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. The event will be Trump's second inauguration to the presidency and the 60th U.S. presidential inauguration. It will mark the commencement Trump’s second, non-consecutive term as U.S. president, the term of JD Vance as the 50th vice president, and the only second non-consecutive re-inauguration for a U.S. president after the second inauguration of Grover Cleveland in 1893.[1]
The preceding ceremony (for the inauguration of Joe Biden in 2021) was largely curtailed due to extraordinary political, public health, economic, and national security crises, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the January 6 Capitol attack. Trump, the president at the time, did not attend the 2021 inauguration.
Planning
Joint Congressional Committee
In May 2024, both houses of Congress appointed a Joint Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies to oversee construction of the platform and other temporary structures that will be necessary for the ceremonies and celebrations.[2]
Construction of the inaugural platform ceremonially began on September 18, 2024 with the driving of the first nail by United States Senator Amy Klobuchar using a nail made from iron ore mined and processed from the Iron Range.[3]
Security and operations
Agencies expected to be involved with planning of the ceremony include the U.S. Capitol Police, the Washington, D.C., metropolitan police, and the U.S. Park Police.[4] Twenty-four states offered National Guard support for the electoral vote certification and inaugural ceremonies.[5]
