After eight intense nights of programming, the 2020 conventions will come to an end on Thursday: President Trump will formally accept the Republican nomination, and the general election season will officially begin.

Here’s how to watch and who is expected to speak on the last night of the Republican National Convention.

The speeches will run from 8:30 to 11 p.m. Eastern time.

  • The Times will stream the convention, accompanied by chat-based live analysis from our reporters and real-time highlights from the speeches.

  • The official livestream will be available on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Twitch and Amazon Prime.

  • ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox News will cover the convention from 10 to 11 p.m.; CNN from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m.; MSNBC from 7 p.m. to 2 a.m.; PBS from 8 to 11 p.m.; and C-SPAN at 8:30 p.m.

President Trump will formally accept renomination and deliver his convention speech at the end of the night. The other speakers include:

  • Ben Carson, the secretary of housing and urban development. A neurosurgeon known for separating twins conjoined at the head, he ran for the Republican nomination in 2016.
