President Donald Trump, his cabinet and hundreds of journalists will gather Friday for the rescheduled White House Correspondents’ dinner after a gunman stopped the event in April.

The rescheduled dinner comes amid tensions between President Donald Trump and a news media he has dubbed “enemy of the people” eclipse the upcoming event.

The April dinner was put on hold after a gunman stormed through a security checkpoint and exchanged fire with security agents before being tackled just before the staircase that leads down to the ballroom, where hundreds of White House officials and journalists were in attendance. Prosecutors later charged 31-year-old Cole Allen with trying to assassinate the president and assaulting a federal officer with a deadly weapon.

Here’s what to expect at tonight’s rescheduled White House Correspondents’ Association dinner:

Friday’s dinner will feature enhanced security measures and new access procedures, according to a statement by White House Correspondents’ Association President Weijia Jiang.

The location has changed to accommodate a more intimate gathering. The event will be at the Waldorf Astoria in Washington, D.C. and host roughly 1,300 people. April’s dinner at the Washington Hilton featured around 3,000 attendees.

Secret Service Director Sean Curran defended the security plan used for April’s dinner in a press conference Wednesday, telling reporters that the gunman was stopped almost 120 yards – roughly the length of a football field – from the podium.

Still, Curran said the Secret Service is not treating Friday’s dinner as a “redo” but as a new presidential visit requiring another security assessment.

“We do expect bad people to show up, it’s just a reality of where we are,” Curran said.

The event comes at a time when threat levels are on a sharp rise. Agents have opened 10,000 protective intelligence cases since January, a 40% increase from the same time last year. The uptick is a combination of online threats, lone actors, foreign threats and mental health concerns.

“[The] numbers at this agency I certainly have never seen in my 24-year career. They are off the charts,” Curran said.

Tensions have reached a peak inside the White House Correspondents’ Association as well. Press freedom groups and retired journalists are urging members of the association to stand up against Trump’s recent attacks towards the media.

A letter to the WHCA led by former ABC News correspondent Lisa Sparks and executive producer Ian Cameron called on the association to “forcefully stand up” to Trump for his actions toward the media. Trump has sued media outlets and pressured television networks over late night hosts Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel’s criticisms of him. This month, the Department of Justice also subpoenaed New York Times journalists over their reporting on Air Force One, before withdrawing the subpoenas under pressure from a judge.

“The administration’s attacks on journalists and press freedom have become even more egregious,” the letter said. “The President’s Department of Justice has subpoenaed journalists and their phone records. President Trump has threatened to revoke licenses of broadcasters who refuse to acquiesce to his demands.”

Still, the White House Correspondents Association will award journalism prizes and journalism scholarships at the event – a major reason the dinner was rescheduled.

“This dinner will not only be an opportunity to carry out our program. It will be a statement that violence has no place in American life and a free press will not be intimidated into silence,” Jiang wrote. “As you have all demonstrated, courage and community can and should rise above.”
