The National Park Service stays out of the debates about crowd sizes — including for President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration.

The question of attendance numbers is likely to draw particular scrutiny. Throughout his 2024 campaign, Trump has consistently emphasized rally crowd sizes, making this inauguration's attendance figures a closely watched metric of public support.

The inauguration will take place Monday, Jan. 20, at the United States Capitol Building, with Trump expected to take his oath around 12 p.m., according to the National Park Service. The event will be aired across various major broadcast networks, including ABC, CBS, CNN, CSPAN, Fox News, MSNBC, NBC and PBS.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration will take place inside the U.S. Capitol on Monday rather than outdoors because of severe cold, the first time in 40 years that U.S. presidential inaugural ceremonies will be moved indoors.

Scheduled for late January, presidential inauguration ceremonies always take place during a chilly time of year at the nation’s capital. The normal high temperature for the day is 45 degrees, and the normal low temperature for the day is 30 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.
