Thu Dec 26 12:10:00 UTC 2024: ## Trump and Vance Set for January 2025 Inauguration

**Washington, D.C.** – With weeks to go until Inauguration Day, preparations are underway for the swearing-in of President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect JD Vance on January 20, 2025. The ceremony, taking place at the U.S. Capitol, will mark the commencement of their term as the 47th President and Vice President of the United States.

The inauguration will follow the traditional format, with Vice President-elect Vance taking the oath of office first, followed by President-elect Trump. Both will recite the oath, unchanged since 1884, pledging to uphold and defend the Constitution. The Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies (JCCIC) is overseeing the event, including the swearing-in, inaugural address, and the pass in review.

A limited number of free tickets to the ceremony are available to the public through members of Congress. While details on entertainment for the inaugural ball remain to be announced, a list of past performers can be found on Billboard’s website. The public is encouraged to contact their congressional representatives for ticket information.
