Here’s how to watch the Republican National Convention

The Republican National Convention will kick off Monday from Milwaukee, where hundreds of delegates and key political figures will gather to make former President Trump the party’s official presidential nominee, just days after a shooter attempted to assassinate him.

The highly anticipated event comes amid the backdrop of the attempted assassination at Trump’s campaign rally Saturday in Pennsylvania. The shooting wounded the former president and two other spectators, while one attendee was killed.

It also follows a tumultuous few weeks in politics, as Democrats debate President Biden’s ability to defeat Trump in November and carry out a second term following a disastrous debate performance last month.

Trump, his yet-to-be-announced running mate, and other GOP figures are slated to speak at the four-day event.

Here’s how to watch the RNC events this week:

When and where is the RNC taking place?

The RNC will start Monday afternoon, when officials open the convention, and it runs through Thursday.

It is taking place at the Fiserv Forum in downtown Milwaukee and other nearby spaces, including the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Panther Arena and the Baird Center, are hosting additional events.

Where the RNC will be livestreamed?

The RNC will be available to stream via The Hill, along with the GOP convention’s YouTube channel and on the social media platform X.

C-SPAN will also provide coverage outside of prime time on its network channel, C-SPAN.org and the C-SPAN Now App.

Media outlets, both local and nation, are expected to stream any happenings on the floor. The actual space is blocked off from the public and is only available to delegates, officials, volunteers and credential media.

What channels will carry the RNC?

Several networks will carry the RNC’s prime-time sessions, during which Trump, prominent Republicans and other guests will deliver speeches to the delegates.

CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, CBS News, ABC News and NBC News have all announced special coverage plans to cover the convention this week.

NewsNation is also slated to present special coverage on Wednesday and Thursday, titled “Decision Desk 2024: The Republican National Convention,” from 7 p.m. to midnight EDT. NewsNation is owned by Nexstar Media Group, which also owns The Hill.
