Donald Trump was joined by his wife Melania for the final time as president-elect on Thursday night at a black tie dinner where he spoke excitedly about his looming inauguration.

The 70-year-old was introduced to the stage at Union Station in Washington DC by Vice President-elect Mike Pence shortly before 9pm after a busy day of events in the capital.

With Melania, 46, on his arm in a glittering, gold gown designed by Reem Acra, Trump was triumphant as he took the microphone for a final speech before he becomes the 45th president.

Between thank yous to his most trusted staff and jibes at Hillary Clinton, he spoke ahead to Friday's swearing in ceremony, joking that if it rains as predicted, at least the taunts about his gravity-defying hair might stop.

'It may rain, it may not rain. I don't care. It doesn't matter. If it really pours that's OK because people will realize it's my real hair. It might be a mess but they're gonna see it's my real hair,' he said, winning laughs from the star-studded audience.

Donald and Melania Trump attended a black-tie dinner in Washington D.C. on Thursday night, their final engagement before he is sworn in as the 45th president

The pair were welcomed into the room at Union Station by rapturous applause, appearing through a set of doors at the back of the stage

Among the many well-heeled guests was Caitlyn Jenner, Jackie Evancho, Wendi Deng and a handful of business titans including members of the Kraft family.

House Speaker Paul Ryan turned out with his wife, Janna, and Juanita Broaddrick and Paula Jones, two of a handful of women who have accused Bill Clinton of rape, were also there.

During his speech, Trump thanked donors and members of his family and celebrated himself as a the hardest working candidate to have ever run for office.

The start of his speech was plagued with microphone difficulties but the president elect's message was not lost in the glitch.

'That was some big victory, some victory,' he said, thanking supporters and party members who had followed him since the start of his campaign.

Casting his mind back to November's election result, he spoke of the country's changing political map.

'That was incredible. More impressive, there was a map a couple of days after the election, and it showed the red counties and the blue counties. And the entire country, practically, other than the little points, was red,' Trump said.

The businessman then rattled through the names of cabinet picks and deep-pocketed donors, reserving a special moment of thanks for Kellyanne Conway, his campaign manager and soon-to-be Senior Adviser.

'I see my Kellyanne, come here. Get up here. She has been so great.

'There is no den she will not go into.' After kissing the blushing strategist on the hand and cheek, he added: 'Thank you baby,' before she returned to her seat.

All of Trump's children won a mention. Tiffany, he said, is 'incredible', and Ivanka, who is primed for a key role in the recently renamed Office of the First Family, was congratulated for her hard work and choice of husband.

Joking about his close relationship with son-in-law Jared Kushner, Trump said of his 35-year-old daughter: 'We have in the audience a special person who has worked very hard, who married very well. It's my daughter Ivanka.

'I sort of stole her husband,' he joked. Kushner will take an unpaid position as senior adviser to the president. Details of what his job may entail have been so far scarce.

The formal dinner capped off a busy day of events for the president elect and his wife. The pair arrived at Union Station shortly before 9pm

The dinner came after a busy day of inaugural events for the future First Family. At around 7pm, they waved goodbye to crowds at Lincoln Memorial after a concert

Trump shed light on it on Thursday night, revealing his hope Kushner will be able to bring peace to the Middle East.

'If you can't produce peace in the Middle East, nobody can. All my life I've been hearing that's the toughest deal to make but I have a feeling Jared is going to do a great job.'

While Barron, the president-elect's ten-year-old son, stayed at home, Donald Jr and Eric were in attendance with their wives. 'Look at them,' he gushed of the pair who will take control of his global business empire while he is in office.

He couldn't resist a jibe at Hillary Clinton, reminding the room how her camp canceled their victory fireworks display two weeks before the election. The move, said Trump, was proof they knew they were going to lose.

'The last two weeks especially, there was something that was happening. They cancelled their fireworks two weeks out. They spent $7million and cancelled it and that's because history has proven that if you're going to lose, you don't want fireworks.'

Finishing his speech, where he also praised future Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who he said called him earlier in the day, Trump repeated a vow made at Lincoln Memorial to 'make America greater than ever before.'

'This is a celebration of victory, we needed this victory. We are going to make America great again. Greater than ever before.'

Friday's inauguration ceremony will begin at 9.30am with music. Jackie Evancho, who found fame on America's Got Talent, will sing the national anthem.

President-elect Trump will start the day by attending a morning church service before making his way to the Capitol to be sworn in.

Pence will be sworn in first as Vice President in a shorter swearing in ceremony before Trump's, which is scheduled for 11.30am.

Trump will then give his inaugural address which he claims to have written weeks ago at his 'Winter White House', his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach.

An inaugural parade is scheduled for 3pm to follow the swearing-in ceremony. The parade will make its way down Pennsylvania Avenue toward the White House.

In the evening, Trump is expected to attend three inaugural balls - two official balls on separate floors of the Walter E Washington Convention Center and the Armed Services Ball at the National Building Museum.

ntroducing the president elect on Thursday, Vice President-elect Mike Pence thanked the room for making the pair their choice.

'THAT WAS SOME VICTORY': TRUMP'S FINAL SPEECH AS PRESIDENT ELECT 'That was some big victory, some victory. 'And records were set that haven't been beaten since Ronald Reagan from the Republican side. 'The next time, four years from now, the next time, we're going to win the old-fashioned way, we're going to win because we did so well, because it was so overwhelming the thing that we did, because it was so beautiful how great our Cabinet … has performed. 'We have a cabinet, I believe, the likes of which has never been appointed. There's never been a cabinet like this. The other side is going absolutely crazy. They're going crazy because we have a group of people I just felt had to go. 'Today, as you know, we appointed the Secretary of Agriculture who happens to be a farmer, Sonny Perdue. 'Since I met him, I saw 10 people that everybody liked who were (all) politically correct but I think thinking back to Sonny. A great farmer. He loves the farms, knows everything about farming, he knows the good stuff and the bad stuff. 'But people came into my office and said 'I'm really wanting the job'. I said 'let me ask you a question, do you have any experience with farms or agriculture?' I said 'have you ever even seen a farm?' They said 'well, no sir.' So, Sonny I want to congratulate you. 'When I was leaving, I saw General Kelly. He's just put it, in the most basic terms, he's in charge of our borders. They had on all the stations that lots of things are happening, even before he gets there, they are saying 'wow, what a difference.' I was honored to get border security, all of the border patrol agents, they endorsed Trump. They know what is happening because General Kelly is going to do an unbelievable job in keeping us all safe. 'The cabinet members are doing really fantastically, they have really, really done a good job. I'm proud of my picks. There's not a pick that I don't love and if there was, I'd tell you right now. I probably would. 'I want to thank the Cabinet for being here. I also want to thank all the senators, all the donors - big donors, small donors. There are donors that got really, really generous the day after the election was won. Calling me saying 'Hi Donald, I just want to tell you that I just sent a big check...' That's OK. We love you too. They are now officially a member of our party. 'We have now picked up hundreds of thousands, millions of Republicans. You remember they said 'you can't get to 270'. They were right. We got to 306. I was watching all of them, the main networks, the cable networks. Fox, has treated us very well I must say. And when I say very well, I mean fairly. They were all saying 'you cannot get to 270'. 'But it was a victory for all of us. In the audience, I see my great brother and I see Anne Marie. I see my sister Mary Anne and David. My sister Elizabeth, I am so happy you're here. We actually have a very good family. A family that gets along. 'My sons, look at them standing there. Eric and Don, and Tiffany who is incredible. Barron is at home. 'We had a great group of people right in the audience. We have somebody under no pressure whatsoever, cause he's got a great quarterback named Tom Brady and great coach, Bob Kraft. Tom called to congratulate us, he feels good. 'I just want to thank everybody. We're going to have four incredible years. We have in the audience a special person who has worked very hard. Who married very well. It's my daughter Ivanka, where is she? I sort of stole her husbad. He is so great. 'If you can't produce peace in the middle east, nobody can. All my life I've been hearing that's the toughest deal to make but I have a feeling Jared is going to do a great job. He's going to do a great job. 'One other person I have to thank... nobody knew how to pronounce his name, it's a crazy name. Reince Priebus. Now everybody pronounces his name right. He's a star. He had a problem because he sort of liked me, he thought I could win and Phyllis Schlafly, the great Phyllis Schlafly, she's a great woman, was a great woman, passed away six months ago, she camE out against all of her fellow conservatives and said, 'I am not endorsing anyone elser but DonalD Trump. 'Reince had the same thing. Reince was taking tremendous abuse. I want to thank Phyllis, she went through hell. She turned to be right. Reince sort of, I always felt he favored me. Reince is fantastic. He has been an unbelievable leader and he had to win because if he didn't, it was over. He would have been fired. We would have fired you Reince. 'He is an unbelievable leader, an unbelievable talent. He's been my friend and he's been with me from the beginning. Just in finishing up, Tom Barrack called me, where is Tom, Tom Barrack, he's a very, very successful guy. He became my party planner. Between him and Stephanie, what a job. What a job you did, thank you. So far it's been perfect. 'The big one is tomorrow at around 12, OK. We had a couple of things today. Arlington National Cemetery, it was so beautiful, so many people. It was incredible. So we went there and we layed the wreath with Mike and it was beautiful. 'Then we went to Lincoln Memorial and had a concert and we thought it was a small concert and tens of thousands of people came. They've never had so many. What they pulled off was incredible. It was unbelievable. 'Tomorrow seems to be the big one. I made a speech tonight at the Lincoln Memorial in front of all those people and all of those live television cameras, which I had. A couple of them are starting to get honest, though. I thought it was a very good speech and they're saying 'doesn't matter tonight, how will he do tomorrow.' 'Tomorrow we have a speech. It may rain, it may not rain. I don't care, it doesn't matter. If it really pours that's OK because people will realize it's my real hair and that's OK. Might be a mess but theyre gonna see it's my real hair. We have a speech that I wrote and worked with Steven Miller, he's great. Steven and Hope and Corey, so many people have been so great. I see my Kellyane. Kellyanne, come here , get up here. She's been so great. 'Come here Kellyanne. There is no den she will not go into. When my men are petrified to go on certain networks, I always say 'Kellyanne would you do it?' and she says 'no problem' and she gets on and she just destroys them. So anyway, thank you baby. 'This is a celebration of victory, we needed this victory. As you know, it was going to be the single greatest defeat in the history of politics. They predicted that this would be in political history, the biggest Republican loss. I tell you one thing, I outworked everybody. I think I outworked anybody that has ever ran for office. Three, four, five speeches a day. '(But) that last two weeks. The last two weeks especially, there was something that was happening. They cancelled their fireworks two weeks out. They spent $7million and cancelled it and that's because history has proven that if you're going to lose, you don't want fireworks. 'What we did in those last two weeks, it was fun and we saw what was going to happen. Thank you all very much. We have an election coming up in two years, we're going to get a lot of senators and a lot of congressmen elected. 'We are going to make America great again. Greater than ever before. Thank you very much everybody.' Advertisement

He and his wife earlier hosted the Indiana Society Ball. Later taking to Twitter, he said: 'Tomorrow, history will be made.'

Conway spoke on the red carpet to tell reporters Trump's team was 'disappointed' by rocky senate confirmation hearings of their Cabinet picks.

Conway described the hearings as 'attempts to humiliate' their 'incredible' nominations.

'We really hope the senate will expedite the confirmation process,' she said. Conway also revealed Trump and the new administration would work through the weekend.

'Tomorrow I turn 50 years old and it's a work day those of us who are going to the White House will be working throughout the weekend.'

She said the president elect's inaugural address was a 'beautifully written' and 'powerfully delivered' speech which Trump had written himself with the help of Steven Miller.

The President-elect and future First Lady were expected to spend their last night before taking public office at Blair House, as is tradition, before Trump is sworn in on Friday.

'We'll see you tomorrow!' Trump stood proudly, pumping the air with his fist as he placed one hand on granddaughter Kai's shoulder as the rest of the family waved after a concert at Lincoln Memorial.

TRUMP'S LINCOLN MEMORIAL PROMISE: 'WE WILL MAKE AMERICA GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE' Donald Trump gave an impassioned speech after the concert at Lincoln Memorial on Thursday evening, the first of two he made on the eve of the inauguration. A full transcript of the first is below: 'I'd like to congratulate our incredible entertainers tonight. Toby and Lee Greenwood and all of the great talent it was really very special. I also have to thank our incredible military talent right here, stand up please, you guys were great. 'So this journey began 18 months ago I had something to do with it but you had much more to do with it than you did. I'm the messenger, I'm just the messenger. (Responding to a scream of 'I love you Trump': 'I love you, believe me I love you.' 'We all got tired of seeing what was happening and we wanted change but we wanted real change and I am so looking forward to tomorrow. We're going to see something that is going to be so amazing, so many people have poured into Washington D.C. This started out tonight being a small little concert . Then we had the idea maybe we'll do it in front of the Lincoln Memorial and the people came by the thousands and thousands and here we are tonight. 'It's a movement that began, that started, it's a movement like we've never seen anywhere in the world they say, there's never been a movement like this and it's something very, very special and we're going to unify our country and our phrase you all know it, half of you are wearing the hat, make America great again. 'But we're going to make America great for all of our people, everybody throughout our country, that includes the the inner cities. That includes everybody and we're going to do a special job and I can only tell you that 18 months ago, we never knew, some people didn't know, some had a feeling, but a lot of people didn't give us much of a chance but we understood what was happening. 'That last month of the campaign when I traveled around to every place you can imagine, state after state, speech after speech. And we had 10,000, 20,0000, 30,000 people. There was never an empty seat just like tonight, we didn't know if anybody would come tonight. We all knew that last month of the campaign, a lot of us knew the first week of the campaign, but that last month of the campaign, we knew that something special was happening. 'I can only tell you this – the polls starting going up up up, but they didn't want to give us credit because they forgot about a lot of us. On the campaign, I called it the forgotten man and the forgotten woman. Well you're not forgotten anymore. 'I want to thank my great family, my incredible wife Melania, they've been so supportive and it wasn't easy for them. They have been so supportive. I want to thank you most importantly, I promise you, I will work so hard. We're going to get it turned around. 'We're going to bring our jobs back. We're not going to let other countries take our jobs anymore. We're going to build up our great military. We're going to build it u. We're going to strengthen our borders. We're going to do things that haven't been done for our country for many, many, decades. 'It's going to change. I promise you, it's going to change. So I'll see you tomorrow and I don't care frankly if it's going to be beautiful or if it's going to rain like crazy. It makes no difference tome. I have a feeling it's going to be beautiful though. 'I will see you tomorrow and I'm going to be cheering you on. You'll be cheering me on but I'll be cheering you on. What we have done is so special. I love you folks and we're going to work together and we are going to make America great again. And I'll add, greater than ever before. Thank you very much and enjoy the fireworks!' Advertisement

Hours earlier, the couple appeared with the rest of the family at a celebration concert at Lincoln Memorial.

Trump thanked the thousands of followers who turned out for the event, praising them as the leaders of a 'very special movement'.

'This journey started 18 months ago. I had something to do with it but you had more to do with it, trust me. I'm just the messenger,' he told the thousands of fans who had gathered at Lincoln Memorial.

In a tender moment of gratitude, The Donald turned to his family, sat in a glass clad box to the side of the stage, to say: 'I want to thank my great family, my incredible wife Melania.

'They've been so supportive and it wasn't easy for them.'

He vowed to 'work so hard' to restore jobs and industry and dedicated his election victory to those who had believed in his crusade since the start of his campaign.

'We're going to see something that is going to be so amazing, so many people have poured into Washington DC.

'This started out tonight being a small little concert - then we had the idea maybe we'll do it in front of the Lincoln memorial and the people came by the thousands and thousands and here we are tonight.

'It's a movement that began, that started, it's a movement like we've never seen anywhere in the world - they say there's never been a movement like this and it's something very, very special and we're going to unify our country.

'And our phrase, you all know it, half of you are wearing the hat, make America great again.

'But we're going to make America great for all of our people, everybody throughout our country.

'That includes the inner cities, that includes everybody and we're going to do a special job and I can only tell you that 18 months ago, we never knew, some people didn't know, some had a feeling but a lot of people didn't give us much of a chance but we understood what was happening.

'It's going to change. I promise you, it's going to change.

'So I'll see you tomorrow and I don't care, frankly, if it's going to be beautiful or if it's going to rain like crazy. It makes no difference to me. I have a feeling it's going to be beautiful though.

'I will see you tomorrow and I'm going to be cheering you on. You'll be cheering me on but I'll be cheering you on.

'What we have done is so special. I love you folks and we're going to work together and we are going to make America great again. And I'll add, greater than ever before.

Toby Keith saluted the country's armed forces and thanked both Barack Obama and President-elect Trump for their service

3 Doors Down also performed at the concert which was largely snubbed by celebrities who publicly slammed Trump

Lee Greenwood sang God Bless the USA, prompting the president elect to sing along and even bop his head

'Thank you very much and enjoy the fireworks!'

The concert has been cast in the shadow of celebrities who declined to perform at it or even attend in protest against Trump.

Their snubs did nothing to dampen the president-elect's spirit nor did they stop a handful of country stars from taking to its stage.

Jon Voight, one of Trump's most outspoken celebrity supporters, kicked off proceedings with a speech he used to complain about the 'barrage of lies' the businessman has faced.

'We have all been witness to a very gruelling year and a half for the president-elect.

'We have been witness to a barrage of propaganda that left us all breathless with anticipation, not knowing if God could reverse all the negative lies against Mr Trump whose only desire was to make America great again.

'He certainly didn't need this job and yes, God answered all our prayers.'

Voight, 78, said Trump would 'save' the country before introducing soul singer Moore to the stage.

Jon Voight hit out at the 'barrage of lies' he said Donald Trump had faced as he kicked off a celebratory concert at Lincoln Memorial ahead of the President-elect's inauguration

Despite a slew of snubs from other Hollywood names and chart-topping musicians, he was enthusiastic about his invitation to the event which was titled Make America Great Again!

Taking to the stage on Thursday afternoon, Voight, 78, said: 'This is some day.

'Dear friends, fellow Americans, I am so honored to be here to welcome you to the inauguration of the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.'

'Here it is. We will be part of history, all of us and President Lincoln, who sits here with us, I'm sure is smiling knowing America will be saved by an honest and good man who will work for all the people, no matter their creed or color.

'My friends, let us rejoice in knowing that from this time on, we will see a renewed America.'

After music from Toby Keith, Lee Greenwood, Sam Moore, 3 Doors Down, The Piano Guys and military band Pershing's Own, Tom Barrack, chairman of the inaugural committee, introduced Trump with a speech which celebrated the historic significance of the event.

The concert finished with a spectacular red, white and blue fireworks display shortly before 7pm

Thousands gathered at the Lincoln Memorial to attend the concert which Trump said been initially planned as a smaller event

'An inauguration is a typically American event and it's the only time in the world that you have this passage of partisan powers that transpires in the snap of a finger.'

'Along the road, we've had 45 men that have left their footsteps and their fingerprints throughout the mortar and the middle of this tidal basin.

'As you have expectations before you, I would like you to pay tribute to the courage, stature, strength, commitment and loyalty of a man who is going to lead with his footprints to diversity, to put the campaigns behind us, to unite behind one man as one America.

'He will show the rest of the world that we can argue, we can fight, we can debate and tomorrow at 11.30, we are one country and he will be the 45th President of the United States.'

Following the tradition of previous presidents, Trump visited Arlington National Cemetery with Mike Pence to lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier later

The concert ended with the president elect's speech and a spectacular fireworks display. As they lit up the sky, Trump and his family stood proudly beneath the memorial.

The entire brood touched down on a US military plane earlier in the day, flying in all together from New York.

Trump then followed inaugural tradition, laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery with his future Vice President Mike Pence.

He spoke briefly at Joint Andrews Base, as did his wife, where he celebrated his Cabinet which he said had 'the highest IQ of any cabinet ever.'

Melania, in an impromptu speech, urged by her husband, she said: 'It's great to be here and thank you all for your support.

'Tomorrow we start the work. There is a lot of possibility and a lot to take care of.'

On Thursday, transition spokesman Sean Spicer said Trump would issue two executive orders on trade soon. On his Day One list, Trump said he would formally declare the United States' intention to withdraw from the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, which he vigorously opposed during his campaign as detrimental to US businesses and workers.

He also promised to declare his intention to renegotiate the 23-year-old North American Free Trade Agreement or withdraw from the deal.

Melania, in a rare public speech, said: 'Tomorrow we start the work. There is a lot of possibility and a lot to take care of.'

Barron Trump, who did not attend the celebration concert or the ball, hopped off the US Military plane first. He was dressed causally in a Ralph Lauren sweater and carried a backpack

He's also made broad promises to upend immediately President Barack Obama's immigration policies, although some of those vows may be difficult to keep.

The president-elect has said he sees Monday as the first big workday of his administration, his effective Day One. Trump said at his first post-election news conference last week that people would 'have a very good time at the inauguration' but his team planned 'some pretty good signings on Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday and Thursday and Friday, and then, also the next week.'

The real estate mogul is expected to sign some paperwork on Friday. He must formally nominate members of his Cabinet, in order to allow some of them to be voted on by the Senate.

The transition team has also said he may sign executive orders - some logistical, others focused on his agenda - that will kick off his administration.

Trump's Day One plan was an ambitious and specific list. It includes proposing a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on members of Congress, imposing a hiring freeze for federal workers, and beginning to remove immigrants who are criminals and living in the country unlawfully.

The list includes 'cancel every unconstitutional executive action, memorandum and order issued by President Obama.' Given Trump's objections to many of Obama's policies, that category could involve some dramatic changes.
