Donald Trump held a rally at Guardian Centers in Perry, Georgia, on October 24, 2026. The event was scheduled to begin with remarks at 7 p.m. Eastern, following doors opening at 3:30 p.m. Eastern. This rally was part of Trump's campaign efforts in the state ahead of the November 3 midterm elections.
The rally's venue was moved approximately 30 miles south from Macon to Perry. This change did not alter the scheduled times for doors opening or Trump's remarks. Despite the venue shift, supporters began arriving at the Perry location hours before the event was set to start. Some attendees arrived as early as 6:30 a.m., with others gathering by 9 a.m., according to local reporting.
The event aimed to support Republican candidates in Georgia's closely contested races. Republican Rep. Mike Collins was challenging Democrat Sen. Jon Ossoff for a U.S. Senate seat, and Republican businessman Rick Jackson was running against former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms for governor. Trump had previously held a rally in Dalton, Georgia, on October 16, 2026, to support these candidates.
