President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony on Monday will take place inside the Capitol rotunda because of a frigid weather forecast in the nation’s capital.
The last time the ceremony was held indoors was Ronald Reagan’s second inauguration when it was only seven degrees; the parade was also canceled that year. Former President Barack Obama’s first inauguration in 2009 was the only other sub-freezing high on inauguration day.
In addition to the swearing-in ceremony, the Presidential Parade will also move indoors, Trump wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social, switching it to the Capital One Arena. The president-elect said he would join those in the arena following the swearing-in ceremony.
With the changes made, here’s everything to know from the start time to the full schedule:
What time does the inauguration start on Monday?
