When is the presidential debate 2024? Kamala Harris, Donald Trump set to take stage

Americans have heard campaign messaging from presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump during rallies, conventions and interviews, but many are anticipating a debate to watch the two face off before the election.

The Democratic National Convention is underway, and President Joe Biden officially passed the torch to Vice President Harris as the Democratic candidate for the 2024 United States Presidential Election.

Now that all presidential candidates and their running mates are officially confirmed, the next presidential debate is approaching quickly. It will be the first time Harris and former president Trump face off — and it could also be the last time the pair debates prior to the election.

When is the presidential debate?

ABC News is hosting the second presidential debate on Sept. 10 at 8 p.m. Central Time in Philadelphia.

USA TODAY Network will stream The ABC News Presidential Debate Simulcast on the USA TODAY channel, available on most smart televisions and devices.

In late June, CNN hosted the first presidential debate in Atlanta, where Trump faced Biden, who was largely criticized for his performance and inability to speak clearly.

"World News Tonight" anchor David Muir and ABC News Live "Prime" anchor Linsey Davis will moderate the debate, according to ABC News.

Trump had proposed two additional debates, but the Harris campaign has not yet agreed, CBS News reported.

Will the vice presidential candidates debate?

The vice presidential debate is set as Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Ohio Sen. JD Vance gear up to take the stage after both accepted an invitation from CBS News.

The outlet confirmed that it invited both candidates to debate in New York on Sept. 17, Sept. 24, Oct. 1 and Oct. 8. Walz posted on X that he agreed to debate, writing, "See you on October 1, JD."
