Under the Constitution’s 20th Amendment, the newly elected president of the United States takes office on Jan. 20 (unless that’s a Sunday, in which case it moves to Jan. 21). For Trump’s (second) big day, the pomp and circumstance will include performances by Carrie Underwood and the Village People, a military parade, and formal balls.

President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration takes place Jan. 20 in Washington, D.C. USA TODAY will stream it live, as will these major TV networks.
