The inauguration of Donald Trump as America's 45th president is the highlight of several days of pomp and circumstance in the US capital. Here's a look at the timeline of events.

Thursday, January 19

10:35 am - Performances begin at Lincoln Memorial. "Voices of the People," the first act of a day-long public concert, will feature groups such as the DC Fire Department Emerald Society Pipes and Drums, the Republican Hindu Coalition, high school marching bands, choirs and baton twirlers.

3:30 pm to 4 pm - Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence participate in a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery in honor of the nation's veterans.

4 pm to 6 pm - Trump will deliver remarks during the second act of the concert at Lincoln Memorial, dubbed the "Make America Great Again! Welcome Celebration." The event, broadcast live nationally, will be headlined by country stars Toby Keith and Lee Greenwood and feature a fireworks finale. Trump is expected to spend Thursday night at Blair House, the presidential guest residence across the street from the White House.

Friday, January 20

Morning - Trump, Pence and their families are expected to attend services at St. John's Episcopal Church, just steps from the White House.

Afterward, President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama welcome Trump and his wife Melania to the White House for morning tea. The two couples will then travel together to the Capitol by motorcade.

9:30 am - Inauguration ceremony begins on the west front of the Capitol with musical performances.

Attendees will include members of Congress, Supreme Court justices, diplomats and the public. Former presidents Jimmy Carter, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton will attend, as will Trump's election opponent Hillary Clinton. Former president George H.W. Bush is in frail health and will not be present.

Sixteen-year-old soprano Jackie Evancho will sing the national anthem. The Rockettes dance troupe will also be performing, at a time yet to be announced.

11:30 am - Opening remarks. Religious leaders will offer the invocation and readings. Pence will be sworn in by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.

Noon - Trump will recite the oath of office, administered by US Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts. He will use president Abraham Lincoln's inauguration Bible, as well as the Bible that Trump's mother gave to him at his Sunday school graduation in 1955. Afterward, Trump will deliver his inaugural address.

12:30 Ceremony ends.

Afterward, in keeping with tradition, Trump and Pence will attend the Congressional Lunch in the Capitol.

3 pm to 5 pm - Inaugural parade. The newly minted president and vice-president make their way 1.5 miles (2.4 kilometers) along Pennsylvania Avenue from the Capitol to the White House, trailed by some 8,000 parade participants. They will include members of all US military branches, as well as high school and university marching bands, equestrian corps, first responders, veteran groups and even a tractor brigade.

7 pm to 11 pm - Trump, Pence and their wives will make appearances at three official inaugural balls, two of which will be held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center and the other at the National Building Museum. A number of semi-official and unofficial balls also will take place throughout the city.

“Pardon me Dolly, if someone else already mentioned this. But the map at the beginning of the thread, at the right hand side, mentions *Obama* taking the oath of office...”

---

morning gw... yes, someone mentioned it yesterday and I apologize for not catching this. I assembled this opening with “this and that” from “here and there”

There were two maps I lifted from the Transition Threads and I did not check them carefully. Made the assumption (I KNOW - I KNOW) they were from this year.

A couple asides..

—the rain coming is a nightmare for the PR system, jumbo screens and the multitude of brass instruments. NOT TO MENTION all the people, children etc.

—I have to work 3-7 today. Hoping there will be a good tape to see it fully. After the parade if someone has a good link, would you ping me please to it?

—Hoping the coverage tonight is better than last night. Pretty disappointed in RSBN last night . The audio was awful and the two interviewers needed MUCH POLISH. The girl reminded me of a 16 year old “OH GOODIE” high schooler and the male just was rather embarrassing in the way he spoke, asked questions etc. I can’t believe there wouldn’t be great journalism interns that could do better. It is good they are going to be truthful but if they are going to take off as a legit media source they really need to clean up their act IMHO

—Everyone looked nice last night. Mrs. Pence wore an interesting gown but it did her NO FAVORS. I heard NIKKs comments re: fitting in w/Midwest.. hmmm. I think she will get some advice to look less matronly. She is a very pretty lady. Is full figured so obviously cannot dress like Melania but will be able to find designed that will show her off to her best advantage.

—Continuing to bathe the entire day — participants, LEO, bikers, attendees... Weather.. well we will see just how tough the folk are, won’t we?

—I think we will see a whole lot mess/clean up from this crowd. remember the past two inaug? The give me, free stuff attendees left the DC area look like the ghettos many of them came from

—Thanks for everyone’s comments, pix, insight.

Am so excited.. Just a few more hours.

Hi RG!

That was great! Ed Henry interviewed a 9 yo from RI on F&F earlier. The boy had on a dark suit, white shirt, red tie and a MAGA hat. Ed asked him why he supported Trump and he said the wall. He then asked anything else and the boy said taxes. Love these kids!

Remember we said this several months ago. The white haired man on Anderson Coopers show said this very same thing and Cooper’s panel jumped all over him. Donna Brazile absolutely lost it when he said she was another Jackie O.

Mr. President ..so surreal! From here on he will be known as Mr. President! Wow eight years of tears and finally the Lord made a way for his people to rejoice once again! Tears running down my face! Thank you Lord! My heart is bursting with gratitude! And humbleness that God is still in control!

[defconw]

You nailed that one! I was just sitting here thinking, reflecting on a businessman from New York City becoming the next President of the United States! I actually voted for him! Wow! Who’d thunk it?

I have to grin when I see Kai - she seems to like to be in on everything her grandpa does!

And he’s late AGAIN. Terrorist in Chief keeping the reporters and viewers waiting for him to exit. Can’t wait until the grown ups are in control.

Was is Jeffrey Lord (who said that, on CNN panel)? Love Jeffrey. He’s been on the Trump Train since Day 1...he and I rode down the escalator, with Trump (in spirit!! :)
