An estimated 200,000 people gathered Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona to honor Charlie Kirk, the Conservative activist whose life was cut short earlier this month. The stadium, which holds about 73,000, filled rapidly after doors opened at 8 a.m., with many arriving hours early from across the country. Overflow crowds streamed into adjacent venues and public viewing areas as attendees were turned away once capacity was reached.
Morgan Wallen paused his concert Friday night in Edmonton to offer a heartfelt dedication to Erika Kirk, widow of Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated two days earlier during a speaking event. While performing on his “I’m the Problem” tour, Wallen opened up to the crowd, sharing how deeply the tragedy had affected him and his family.
Erika Kirk, the widow of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, delivered her first public remarks since Charlie was fatally shot at Utah Valley University. Speaking from his studio next to his empty chair, Erica proclaimed that her husband’s message—rooted in patriotism, faith, and conservative values—won’t just endure, it will intensify.
