Thousands are expected to attend the annual White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday, hosted by President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden.
USA TODAY is providing live coverage of the White House Easter Egg Roll led by the First Lady. You can watch the embedded live video at the top of the page or on USA TODAY's YouTube channel. It was set to start at 7 a.m. ET but rain and storms in the area have delayed the event.
The 2024 Easter “EGGucation” Roll will be split into nine sessions. Around 40,000 people will take part this year, according to the White House, including thousands of military and veteran families, caregivers and survivors. Tickets to the general public were distributed to people from around the country in a public online lottery.
According to the White House, the South Lawn and Ellipse will be transformed "into a school community, full of fun educational activities for children of all ages to enjoy."
The White House has hosted an Easter egg roll in a tradition dating back to 1878, when President Rutherford B. Hayes was in office.
