President-elect Donald Trump will headline Turning Point USA’s annual America Fest in Phoenix, delivering his first public address since his election victory. The event, set to take place at the Phoenix Convention Center from December 18-22, promises a packed agenda featuring top conservative leaders and performances by popular artists.
Trump’s appearance comes just weeks before his January inauguration, marking his return to the rally stage. The four-day event is known for energizing conservative activists, with Turning Point USA describing it as an opportunity for attendees to “hear from dozens of the nation’s top leaders,” develop leadership skills, and connect with resources for activism.
Speakers include prominent figures such as Tucker Carlson, Glenn Beck, Steve Bannon, Ben Shapiro, House Speaker Mike Johnson, Ted Cruz, and Donald Trump Jr., along with cultural influencers like Rob Schneider and Tim Pool. With such a lineup, America Fest is set to draw thousands of like-minded attendees and conservative organizations.
Turning Point Action played a key role in mobilizing young and first-time voters for Trump during the election. The group focused on activating low-propensity voters and encouraging them to influence their friends and families to cast ballots, contributing to Trump’s decisive win.
In addition to the speeches, attendees can enjoy concerts by top artists and engage in networking opportunities with over 100 partnering organizations. Turning Point USA touts the event as a chance to celebrate American values and prepare attendees to return to their communities with renewed energy and purpose.
Trump’s presence at the event underscores his strong ties to grassroots conservative movements and sets the stage for his policy agenda as he prepares to lead the nation once again. With America Fest bringing together some of the most influential voices in the conservative movement, it promises to be a defining moment in the lead-up to Trump’s inauguration.
