The general public will have the opportunity to see President Donald Trump speak in Janesville on Saturday.
The event at the Southern Wisconsin Regional Airport was originally billed as a private campaign fundraiser, but the Trump campaign announced Tuesday night that he will also be holding a public rally as part of his appearance.
Doors will open to the public at 3:00 Saturday afternoon with the speech scheduled to begin at 6:00 p.m.
The announcement says “all attendees will be given a temperature check, masks which they are instructed to wear, and access to hand sanitizer.”
His visit comes less than a week after his son Eric Trump spoke at Diamond Assets in Milton on Monday.
Trump was previously scheduled for a campaign speech in Janesville on October 3 but postponed the event after testing positive for COVID-19.
The registration page for Saturday’s rally includes the following waiver about risk of the coronavirus:
