Join the Democrats Abroad Lyon chapter in celebrating the historic inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris on January 20.

Kamala will take the Oath of Office at 11:45 AM Washington, D.C. time (17:45 in Lyon), followed 15 minutes later by Joe at noon.

We'll be starting our event an hour earlier for some interesting and fun activities, including:

• A look back at some Famous Inaugural Speeches
• Poems and Readings
• An Inauguration Trivia Quiz
• Vote for the Best- and Worst-Dressed First Ladies
• Inauguration Ball Music

Although, according to the Washington Post,  some stateside Americans will be celebrating with special eats and drinks including Ice Cream Jubilee's Cuppa Joe, and Amtrak Joe's Pilsner and Madam Veep's IPA beers from Atlas Brew Works, we'll be able to provision ourselves with food from the world's gastronomical capitol and champagne.

Bring your favorite snacks and beverages and join us for some virtual celebration!

This event is open to our members only due to limited seating.  Members will have the opportunity to cast their online vote for our Chapter's new Executive Committee. This committee has a term limit of two years and will be announced at the end of this event. In addition, we welcome you all to come and interact with fellow Americans in the region and engage in American political discussions. So join us for a Zoom Political Wine! Pour yourself a glass of rosé, and let’s chat.

Dear Members of Democrats Abroad Toulouse,  

We are excited to invite you to our 2021 Inauguration Watch Party.  Join us to celebrate the day we have all been working hard for: the Inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris on January 20th.  

Our celebration will kick off on Zoom at 17:30 CET (link to come after RSVPing), and then we will live stream the events in Washington DC: the VP swearing in ceremony, the Presidential swearing in ceremony and the Presidential Address.  Afterwards we can celebrate together as a Chapter, knowing that Democrats Abroad everywhere will be doing the same.  

21 February is John Lewis' birthday. In his honor, we will be screening the documentary John Lewis: Good Trouble. After the film will have a discussion.
