The President and First Lady will be in Erie for the Make America Great Again Rally at 7 p.m. Location will be the Erie International Airport. The doors will open at 4 p.m.

Attenders will have to do a temperature check, given a mask-which they will need to wear-, and access to sanitizer. According to Erie News Now, "There is also a waiver on the registration form which says attendees agree not to hold the campaign, venue and any associated staff liable for exposure to COVID-19."

Parades have been held in support of President Trump throughout the city by his supporters since yesterday. 

Many preparations are coming together for his visit. The U.S. Air Force is already here. And many roadways surrounding the Airport have closed. 

There is no exact number of those going, but an estimated 5,000 to 10,000 to be there. 

This visit comes a week and a half after Joe Biden visited Erie, where he saw the UA 27 Plumbers training facility before speaking in the parking lot.  

Register here for up to two tickets that are on a first-come, first-serve basis.
