Host a MoveOn for Harris Debate Watch Party on Sept. 10!

The first debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump is scheduled for Tuesday, September 10, at 9 p.m. ET (8 CT/7 MT/6 PT), and we're inviting you to host a watch party to rally behind Vice President Harris!

Create a debate watch party to gather your community to participate in this electric night, and to provide your neighbors with ways to help elect Vice President Harris with MoveOn's election program. MoveOn will invite fellow members in your area to join your party!

Some logistical pointers: 

  • WHEN: The debate starts at 9 p.m. ET (8 CT/7 MT/6 PT) and will last approximately 90 minutes. Please plan to start your event BEFORE the debate start time but not to conclude it until at least 90 minutes after than the debate start time.
  • WHERE: Your event can be in a venue like a local bar or restaurant, a public space such as a library or community center, or even your home. If you're not sure where you want to hold it, we recommend posting the event for where you'd like to have it, then confirming that it can accommodate you. You can update the venue later. The most important thing is that you are able to watch the event on TV or projector and that attendees will be able to hear.
