Vice President Kamala Harris is poised to accept her party’s nomination for president on Thursday, as the Democratic National Convention comes to a close.

Harris’ address comes after her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, formally accepted the party’s nomination for vice president on the third night of the convention. In the night’s keynote address, Walz introduced himself on the national stage, telling the story of his time in the National Guard, his work as a public school teacher and coach, and his 12 years in Congress, while driving home the value of simply being a good neighbor. 

Delegates also heard from former President Bill Clinton and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, along with a slew of Democrats in Congress and other elected officials from across the country. And a handful of celebrities — including Oprah Winfrey — made an appearance. 

The third night of the convention also featured testimonials from Americans on a range of issues, from abortion to LGBTQ rights, as they advocated for freedoms that they argued a Harris-Walz administration would protect.

What’s on the agenda?

Each day of the convention features a theme related to the tagline, “For the People, For Our Future.” Thursday’s theme is centered on the “For Our Future” element, where the party is set to highlight how the Harris-Walz plans to lead the nation forward. 

The Day 3 programming gets underway at 5:30 p.m. CT, or 6:30 p.m. ET. For a detailed list of events, see the DNC’s schedule on their website.

Who’s speaking?

Although an official schedule has yet to be released, more prominent Democrats are expected to speak on the final day of the convention before Harris delivers her remarks to cap Day 4 — and the convention more broadly.
