Overview

• The Department of Homeland Security designated Sunday’s memorial a SEAR Level 1 event, a status reserved for the most significant national gatherings.
• The U.S. Secret Service is serving as federal coordinator, with agents already on the ground working with state, local and federal partners.
• Officials expect more than 100,000 people around the venue, with about 63,000 inside the stadium and overflow at Desert Diamond Arena, and registration is encouraged for the first-come, first-served event.
• Security plans call for thousands of officers, magnetometer screening, aerial assets and extensive surveillance, with strict item restrictions under Secret Service protocols.
• Glendale police warn of limited parking, no overnight camping and major delays, urging rideshares and early arrival as lots open at 7 a.m. and doors at 8 a.m.
