Thousands of Alaskans are expected to turn out for President Donald Trump’s Oct. 13 visit to Wasilla. Trump is scheduled to speak at the Curtis D. Menard Memorial Sports Center in Wasilla as part of an effort to boost U.S. Sen. Dan Sullivan’s re-election efforts.

To accommodate the anticipated crowd, buses will provide shuttles the venue, as there will be no on-site parking at the Menard Center.

Attendees will need to park at the nearby Church on the Rock (3571 W Machen Rd) with overflow parking provided at an adjacent gravel lot (N Stanley Rd & W Coughlan Circle).

After parking, attendees must proceed to the shuttle pick-up area. All guests will be screened by U.S. Secret Service before entering the event. See a list of prohibited items below.

Starting at 10 a.m., shuttle buses will begin taking people to the Menard Center for the rally. Doors will open at 12 p.m., and the pre-program will kick off at 2 p.m. Trum is scheduled to take the stage around 3:30 p.m.
