Tens of thousands of mourners have made their way through security to attend a memorial service for Charlie Kirk at an Arizona stadium, where US President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and other top Republicans will pay tribute to the assassinated conservative activist.

Christian rock music blared through loudspeakers and pictures of Kirk were set on easels throughout the walkways of the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, which has a capacity of more than 63,000.
