Donald Trump is set to be sworn in as the 47th President of the United States.

Due to forecasts of extreme cold in Washington, D.C., the Inauguration was moved indoors, with the swearing-in ceremonies happening inside the Capitol Rotunda.

Supporters will be able to watch a live stream of the event and the presidential parade in the Capital One Arena, the same arena where Trump held a rally on the eve of the inauguration. While over 200,000 tickets were originally issued for the swearing-in viewing, the arena only has the capacity for just over 20,000.
