A public ceremony is scheduled for Wednesday, January 20, 2021, on the West Front of the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. The event will be the 59th presidential inauguration. Johnson will take the oath of office as president on that day, and Harris will take the oath of office as vice president.
