2020 Republican National Convention: How To Livestream

The Republican National Convention began Monday, Aug. 24. Here's how to watch livestream events on TV or your devices.

CHARLOTTE, NC —The Republican National Convention kicked off in Charlotte Monday with the formal renomination of President Donald Trump at the Charlotte Convention Center.

While Monday concluded the portion of the event in Charlotte, programming was planned every evening through Thursday, when Trump is expected to formally accept his party's nomination in Washington.

While the ongoing coronavirus pandemic has derailed much of the traditional pomp, crowds and celebration of the GOP convention that was originally anticipated in the Queen City, there are plenty of ways to watch the four-day RNC event, said 2020 RNC organizers.
