After inauguration day, it is on Trump and America to ensure that the oath to defend the U.S. Constitution is kept.

Under the Constitution’s 20th Amendment, the newly elected president of the United States takes office on Jan. 20 (unless that’s a Sunday, in which case it moves to Jan. 21). For Trump’s (second) big day, the pomp and circumstance will include performances by Carrie Underwood and the Village People, a military parade, and formal balls.

Eight years ago, it was mostly family and elected officials behind Trump as he took the oath of office. This time fellow billionaires will surround him.

President-elect Donald J. Trump, over the course of the 2024 campaign and after his election, made big promises to the American people on everything from the economy to foreign policy. Here’s what he said he would do with a second term.

Trump's second inauguration day will begin with a service at St John's Church, Lafayette Square, a historic Washington DC church, followed by tea at the White House. Musical performances and opening remarks are set to begin at 09:30 EST (14:30 GMT).
