Created: JANUARY 26, 2025

Get ready for extensive coverage of President Donald Trump's second inauguration as Fox News Channel and Fox News Digital provide wall-to-wall reporting on this historic 60th Presidential Inauguration.

Kick off your day with "Fox & Friends First" at 5 AM ET, where Todd Piro and Carley Shimkus will preview the day's events and provide the latest updates, including adjustments made due to anticipated cold weather. Most inaugural events will be held indoors due to the predicted Arctic chill in Washington, D.C.

Then, tune in to "Fox & Friends" at 6 AM ET with Steve Doocy, Brian Kilmeade, Lawrence Jones, and Ainsley Earhardt for up-to-the-minute coverage leading up to the inauguration.

Harris Faulkner will anchor "The Faulkner Focus" at 11 AM ET, providing breaking news and updates just before the official inauguration ceremony at noon.

Fox News' main inauguration coverage begins at 11:30 AM ET with chief political anchor Bret Baier and anchor Martha MacCallum. They'll be joined by Harris Faulkner, Bill Hemmer, Sandra Smith, and former Rep. Harold Ford Jr. (D-Tenn.).

President Trump's inauguration will take place inside the Capitol, a relatively uncommon practice in recent history. Only Presidents Ronald Reagan (second inauguration) and John F. Kennedy have been sworn in indoors in modern times.

"The Five" will air at 5 PM ET with the team providing reactions to the day's events. Bret Baier anchors "Special Report" at 6 PM ET, followed by Laura Ingraham's "The Ingraham Angle" at 7 PM ET, broadcasting live from the Commander-in-Chief Ball.

Jesse Watters will host "Jesse Watters Primetime" at 8 PM ET, also live from the Commander-in-Chief Ball. Sean Hannity will provide analysis and reactions from the Liberty Ball at 9 PM ET.
