Gracie Abrams and other music stars will join Harris-Walz in the final swing state blitz before Election Day

Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are wrapping up October with a travel series that will see both candidates appear in all seven battleground states ahead of the Nov. 5 presidential election.

The vice president's trip includes a major speech in Washington, D.C., a week before Election Day, the same place where Donald Trump rallied the mob that broke into the Capitol on Jan. 6.

According to the Harris-Walz campaign, Harris and her candidate will storm through battleground states for a series of rallies aimed at winning votes and “using the energy of these events to mobilize voters to the polls.” .

On Monday, Harris and Walz will be in Michigan for a joint performance as part of their “When We Vote, We Win” concert series with singer-songwriter Maggie Rogers.

Before joining Harris for the evening rally, Walz is scheduled to make additional solo appearances around the Wolverine State after traveling there from Wisconsin, where he is scheduled to appear at two separate events in Manitowoc and Waukesha.

On Tuesday, Harris is scheduled to give a speech at the Ellipse in the nation's capital that her campaign has called an important “closing argument” – where Trump urged a riotous mob to march on the Capitol to stop the certification of an election in which he won had lost almost four years ago.

Walz, meanwhile, is scheduled to perform in Savannah and Columbus, Georgia.

On Wednesday, Harris plans stops in North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, including another “When We Vote, We Win” rally in Madison, where she will be joined by Gracie Abrams, Mumford & Sons, Remi Wolf and Matt Berninger of The National and Aaron Dessner for musical performances.

For his part, Walz will spend this Wednesday campaigning in North Carolina, with two appearances in Charlotte and Asheville.

On Halloween, the vice president will travel west for stops in Nevada and Arizona, including rallies in Reno, Las Vegas and Phoenix.

According to the campaign, Maná, a Mexican pop-rock band, will perform at the rally in Las Vegas and Los Tigres del Norte will perform in Phoenix.

Walz is expected to spend the day in Pennsylvania and Michigan, with stops in Harrisburg, Erie and Detroit.

The artists who perform at the campaign events “are trusted voices for the millions of Americans who listen to their music, follow them on social media or are otherwise inspired by them,” the campaign says.

The campaign believes the artists can further encourage and mobilize voters by presenting the challenges of the election.

The rallies are also used as organizing centers for the campaign's election campaign as well as volunteer recruiting sites.
