    The second day of the 2024 Democratic National Convention begins Tuesday in Chicago as Day 1 saw appearances and speeches by the likes of Kentucky governor Andy Beshear, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and President Joe Biden , among others.

    Other Democratic heavyweights, such as former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton , are also expected to speak at the convention, all leading up to Vice President Kamala Harris accepting the party's presidential nomination on Thursday night.

    The convention comes after a whirlwind few months for Democrats since Biden's disastrous debate performance against former President Donald Trump on June 27. Biden has since decided not to seek reelection and endorsed Harris as the nominee.

    Here's what you need to know about the 2024 DNC, including the full schedule for Tuesday and how to watch and livestream it.
