Former President Donald Trump to Hold Rally in Aurora, Colorado This Friday
AURORA, Colo. — Get ready, Aurora! Former President Donald Trump is set to make a splash this Friday at the Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center, where he will hold a highly anticipated rally. Doors will open for ticket holders at 9 a.m., with Trump expected to take the stage at 1 p.m. This event is sure to draw a crowd, and local officials are preparing for the influx of attendees.
As excitement builds, the Aurora Police Department is advising residents and visitors to expect significant traffic impacts in the area. With 64th Avenue being the only access point to the Gaylord, attendees should plan for potential delays due to the former president’s motorcade and the expected surge of rally-goers.
For those planning to attend, it’s important to note that there will be no on-site parking available at the venue. Instead, two nearby parking lots have been designated for rally attendees: one located at 56th and Himalaya and the other at 61st and Peña. The Colorado GOP has announced that a limited number of shuttles will be available to transport attendees to the event, but many may find themselves walking to the venue.
In light of Trump’s visit, Aurora’s mayor has pushed back against some claims made by the former president, emphasizing the importance of accurate information and community engagement. Meanwhile, Colorado Governor Jared Polis has expressed that this rally presents an opportunity to "counter the bizarre narrative" surrounding Aurora, highlighting the city’s vibrant community and resilience.
To ensure the safety and smooth operation of the event, the Aurora Police Department is collaborating with the Secret Service and the Denver Police Department. Their joint efforts aim to create a secure environment for both attendees and residents alike.
As the countdown to Friday’s rally continues, the atmosphere in Aurora is charged with anticipation. Whether you’re a supporter or simply curious about the event, it promises to be a significant moment in the local political landscape. So, mark your calendars and prepare for a day filled with energy, discussions, and perhaps a few surprises!
