2021 Inauguration

The 2021 Inauguration refers to the ceremony where Joe Biden was sworn in as the 46th President of the United States on January 20, 2021. This event followed a highly contentious election amid the COVID-19 pandemic and social unrest. Kamala Harris was also inaugurated as the first female Vice President, as well as the first Black and South Asian Vice President. The ceremony was held at the U.S. Capitol, which had recently experienced a violent breach. Due to security concerns and public health measures, the event was scaled down, with limited attendance and a focus on virtual celebrations.
