DETROIT (WXYZ) — Some of President Trump's most well-known supporters will arrive in Detroit Thursday for a rally planned in support of building a border wall.

The event is called "We Build The Wall" and will be held at Cobo Hall. Speakers include Steve Bannon, Kris Kobach and Brian Kolfage.

It's held by fans of a campaign promise from Donald Trump - to build the wall on the U.S. - Mexico border, after a GoFundMe raised millions of dollars in support.

The folks behind "We Build The Wall" say private money on private land can help achieve the goal.

Doors will open at 5:30 p.m. and the program will begin at 7 p.m. The event is free, but advance registration is required. For more information, click here.
