The inauguration of Donald Trump as the 45th president of the United States is scheduled to take place on Jan. 20 in Washington, D.C. Here's a look at Trump Inauguration Day 2017, the events surrounding the inaugural ceremony and the full schedule.

Inaugural events for Trump are scheduled to begin Thursday, Jan. 19, with a welcome celebration kicking off the events followed by the president-elect and Vice President-elect Mike Pence laying a wreath at Arlington National Cemetery. That event will be followed by a welcome concert at the Lincoln Memorial.

“The 2017 inaugural celebrations will reflect President-elect Trump’s eagerness to get to work in order to make our country safer and stronger,” said Tom Barrack, chairman of the Presidential Inaugural Committee (PIC). “President-elect Trump is committed to unifying our country as we once again celebrate the foundation of our American system and the peaceful transfer of power.”

Trump and Pence will be sworn in at the Capitol Friday, Jan. 20, where they will participate in the parade down Pennsylvania Avenue. The official inaugural balls that will be held on the same day will feature an appearance by president and the first lady, and vice president and Mrs. Pence.

On Saturday, Jan. 21, Trump and Pence will attend a national prayer service at the Washington National Cathedral, which will conclude the celebration.
