The presidential inauguration ceremony will take place on what could be the coldest inauguration day since 1985.

With endless perimeter fencing, all-seeing drones and some 25,000 security personnel, the US capital is preparing for Donald Trump's presidential inauguration in an unprecedented protective posture after an election cycle marked by violence.

Travelers looking to book accommodations for the inauguration Monday of President-elect Donald Trump should act fast — at least 70% of all hotels in the Washington region are filled.

President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration next week is expected to be moved indoors because of cold weather, according to multiple reports Friday.

WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration ceremony is moving indoors to the Capitol rotunda, because of a frigid weather forecast in the nation's capital Monday, the president-elect announced on social media Friday.

The Rotunda is prepared as the inclement weather alternative for each inauguration in the event of inclement weather. The swearing-in was last moved indoors in 1985, when President Ronald Reagan began his second term. Monday’s forecast calls for the lowest inauguration day temperatures since that day.
