SARASOTA, Fla. (WFLA) — The Republican Party of Sarasota is holding a Charlie Kirk tribute at Robarts Arena on Saturday.

“We know the incredible importance of Charlie to the shift in young Americans toward traditional American, Christian conservatism,” said Republican Party of Sarasota County Chairman Jack Brill. “As he had a home on Longboat Key, we felt it was important to honor his life and legacy here in Sarasota, and do what we can to support and encourage the movement he launched.”

Congressman Greg Steube, Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson and Republican Party of Florida Chairman Evan Power are all confirmed to be in attendance.

A few thousand people are expected to attend the event, which is set to begin at 11 a.m.
