The memorial for Charlie Kirk, who was shot and killed earlier this month, took place in Glendale, Arizona, on Sunday.
Kirk, a popular US conservative podcaster and organizer, was assassinated by a sniper on September 10 while speaking at a university in Utah. The murder has prompted tributes from public figures at home and abroad.
Tens of thousands of people are attending, with US President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Erika Kirk, Charlie Kirk’s widow, among them. All three are expected to make speeches.
The event is being held at State Farm Stadium and has been designated a top-security event by the Department of Homeland Security. Among those making a speech are also US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Secretary of Health RFK Jr., White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and commentator Tucker Carlson.
