President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that the Republican Party will hold its first midterm convention, a two-day event in Dallas that he said will celebrate his administration's accomplishments and energize supporters ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. 
In a Truth Social post, Trump said the convention will take place Sept. 9-10 and described it as a historic event for the Republican Party. 
"For the first time ever, the Republican Party will hold a MIDTERM CONVENTION," Trump wrote. 
"It will be in Dallas, Texas  One of my favorite places in the World. 
It will be fantastic! 
It has never been done before, and will be a truly Historic Event." 
Trump said the gathering will celebrate what he called the "Great American Comeback" and feature Americans from a broad cross-section of the country. 
"We are going to celebrate the GREAT AMERICAN COMEBACK, and the incredible successes of the American People who transformed our Country through the America First Agenda," Trump wrote before pointing to policies including no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, stronger border security, lower costs, increased domestic energy production and more jobs. 
The president also touted declining oil prices and the administration's efforts to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. 
"Oil Prices are dropping sharply, even as we Denuclearize Iran," Trump wrote. 
Trump said the convention will feature "hardworking Americans, our Great Innovators, Entrepreneurs, Manufacturers, First Responders, and Job Creators," along with entertainment, promising "a RALLY like none other." 
The event comes as Republicans prepare to defend their congressional majorities in the 2026 midterm elections. 
Midterm elections have historically been challenging for the party that controls the White House, making turnout and voter enthusiasm central priorities for both parties. 
"This historic Midterm Convention will highlight President Trump's many accomplishments and unwavering commitment to restoring America," Republican National Committee Chair Joe Gruters said in a statement. 
"This convention will be a Trumpapalooza, where we will showcase the America First agenda, which has delivered the largest tax cut in history and made communities safer. 
President Trump will unite Republicans around our shared vision, build momentum, and deliver an incredible convention for our Party." 
Trump concluded his announcement by tying the convention to the nation's upcoming 250th anniversary. 
"America's 250th Birthday is approaching, and together, we are building the foundation for the NEXT 250 YEARS of American Greatness," he wrote. 
"Dallas will take center stage on September 9th and 10th as we celebrate our Nation, our achievements, and our bright future. 
THE GOLDEN AGE OF AMERICA HAS ONLY JUST BEGUN!"
