Supporters across the nation will gather to mourn the death of 31-year-old political commentator Charlie Kirk.
The conservative commentator and founder of youth organization Turning Point USA (TPUSA) was shot and killed on Sept. 10 while speaking to a crowd at Utah Valley University. Kirk was well-known for visiting college campuses across the country and holding debates with students on controversial topics. He was married and had two young children.
Here are the details of his upcoming service to honor his life and legacy:
When & Where
The public memorial will be held at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, on Sunday at 11 a.m. Doors open at 8 a.m.
The theme of Kirk’s memorial service is called “Building a Legacy – Remembering Charlie Kirk.”
The event is first-come, first-served based on stadium capacity. Indoor overflow will be available next door at the Desert Diamond Arena, according to event organizers.
Confirmed Speakers
President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance are scheduled to deliver remarks at Kirk’s service.
Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk, is also expected to address supporters at the service. Since the assassination, Erika has taken on the role of her slain husband and has been named the new TPUSA CEO and Chair of the Board.
Donald Trump Jr., Tucker Carlson, and Stephen Miller are among the scheduled speakers.
Other confirmed speakers include White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.
More speakers are expected, according to event organizers.
Enhanced Security, TSA-Level Screening
Federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies have teamed up to secure the venue for Kirk’s service.
Enhanced security measures are in place, event organizers said.
Guests attempting to enter the stadium should expect “TSA-level screening.”
All bags, even clear bags, are prohibited. Guests will be asked to return their bags to their vehicles and then rejoin the line from the end.
Additionally, any material items dedicated to Kirk cannot be brought into the stadium. Guests should deliver those items instead to Turning Point USA Headquarters in Phoenix.
