Less than four days before the start of the Democratic Party Convention, the final work is being completed on the United Center.
The DNC will stream on multiple platforms – including TikTok, Instagram and YouTube. The official live stream of the 2024 Democratic National Convention will be available on its website.
According to the DNC, primetime programs will air live on Monday from 6:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. ET/5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. CT and Tuesday through Thursday from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. ET/6 p.m. to 10 p.m. CT.
ABC News will have special coverage of the DNC – including primetime coverage from 10 p.m. to 11 p.m. ET on ABC all days of the conventions and on ABC News Live from 7 p.m. to midnight ET.
Hulu will have live coverage throughout the day, and ABC News Live will provide extensive coverage of the convention each day.
ABC News Digital and 538 will live blog the latest news from Congress and provide analysis as congressional events unfold.
While the DNC has not yet released a list of speakers scheduled for each evening, its website lists some of the convention’s daytime events, including caucus and council meetings and press conferences.
Biden is scheduled to speak at the DNC on Monday.
Sources told ABC News that according to a work schedule that is subject to change, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will also speak Monday night, former President Barack Obama on Tuesday, Walz and former President Bill Clinton on Wednesday and Harris on Thursday.
As usual, Democratic National Committee Chairman Jamie Harrison will ring the gavel on the first night of the convention.
The 2024 DNC will take place in Chicago from August 19 to 22.
Official events, primetime programs and speeches will take place at the United Center – home of the Chicago Blackhawks and Chicago Bulls. Additional party activities will take place at the McCormick Place Convention Center.
Democrats are in good territory with a convention in Chicago. Chicago is a Democratic stronghold that, according to the DNC, “was part of the ‘blue wall’ that was critical to Biden and Harris’ victory in 2020 and will be critical to a Harris and Walz victory in November.”
“Chicago is the perfect place to share the story of Vice President Harris, Governor Walz and the Democratic Party with the American people. Chicago represents the diversity of the Democratic Party and the country,” the DNC said.
