Trump's first inauguration in 2017 featured a concert at the Lincoln Memorial that boasted performances from country music stars Toby Keith, 3 Doors Down, and Lee Greenwood. Jackie Evancho, a former contestant on 'America's Got Talent,' was the vocalist for the national anthem during the swearing-in ceremony. Trump's inaugural celebration is set to commence on Saturday at his golf club in Sterling, Virginia, approximately an hour outside of Washington, D.C., as announced by the inaugural committee on Monday. The following day, Trump will visit Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia before holding a rally at Capitol One Arena in Washington with his supporters. A candlelight dinner is also scheduled for later in the evening.
