TPUSA Places Times Square Video Ad Promoting AmericaFest 2025 and Tribute to Charlie Kirk

Turning Point USA has run a video advertisement in Times Square to promote AmericaFest 2025, featuring founder Charlie Kirk discussing the importance of dialogue. The clip began airing last week and will run through tomorrow, and Rumble — the conference's exclusive streamer — also promoted the ad. AmericaFest will take place Dec. 18–21 at the Phoenix Convention Center in Arizona and organizers say the program will honor Kirk's legacy. The event is expected to draw thousands, include more than 100 partner organizations, and feature a range of conservative speakers.

Turning Point USA (TPUSA) has placed a video advertisement in Times Square, New York City, to promote its upcoming AmericaFest 2025. The clip began airing last week and organizers say it will continue through tomorrow.

The ad — which was posted to TPUSA's Instagram account — features founder Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated during a campus tour in September, speaking about the importance of open conversation in public life.

'When churches stop talking, when marriages stop talking, when friends stop talking, division and strife usually begins. And so, I think dialogue is paramount to a healthy and functioning society,' Kirk says in the clip.

Rumble, which will hold exclusive streaming rights for AmericaFest, also amplified the advertisement on its social channels, echoing the message about the value of dialogue.

Event Details and Program

AmericaFest is scheduled for Dec. 18–21 at the Phoenix Convention Center in Arizona. Organizers say the multi-day conference will pay tribute to Kirk and aim to advance the movement he helped build.

The conference website describes the event as a gathering where thousands of attendees will hear from national figures, engage with more than 100 partner organizations, and participate in leadership and activism training designed to strengthen conservative organizing on college campuses and beyond.

Organizers have announced a slate of conservative speakers and public figures expected to appear at the event, including Sean Duffy and Tulsi Gabbard. Since Kirk's death, TPUSA reports it has received tens of thousands of requests to form new high school and college chapters.

The Times Square placement is a high-profile element of TPUSA's promotional push for its winter conference, combining large-format public advertising with social and streaming promotion in the weeks leading up to the December gathering.
