Colorado State Increases Security Ahead of Charlie Kirk Vigil at Canvas Stadium

The vigil replaces a planned event after Kirk's death at Utah Valley University; a suspect was arrested and prosecutors seek the death penalty, officials said.

  • On Sept. 18, 2025, Turning Point USA converted its planned Colorado State University event into a vigil at Canvas Stadium from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. to honor Charlie Kirk.
  • Following a 33-hour manhunt, Tyler Robinson was arrested after the Turning Point USA founder was shot and killed at Utah Valley University attended by over 3,000.
  • CSU increased security for both events, enforcing clear-bag policies and magnetometers with costs shared by student groups including National Ground Game and CSU Political Review.
  • Organizers planned multiple remembrance events, including 'A Call to Courage' with speakers such as Governor Patrick Morrisey; Erika Kirk was named CEO of Turning Point USA.
  • A new poll found 15 percent of registered voters say the country is better off now that Kirk has been killed, and the Napolitan Institute called desensitization 'alarming and telling,' while a Loveland man was recently arrested for burning a memorial.
