Zohran Mamdani Sworn In as NYC Mayor at 34 | Historic Inauguration Day | US Politics | AT World News Zohran Mamdani was inaugurated on January 1, 2026, as the 112th Mayor of New York City, marking a historic milestone. At just 34, he becomes the city’s youngest mayor in over a century and the first Muslim and South Asian to hold the office.
The day began with a private midnight swearing-in at the decommissioned City Hall subway station, where Attorney General Letitia James administered the oath on a historic Quran from the New York Public Library. A public ceremony followed at City Hall, with Senator Bernie Sanders administering the ceremonial oath.
Mamdani’s inaugural address outlined a bold agenda focused on affordability, universal childcare, rent freezes, and free bus fares. On his first day, he signed executive orders to protect tenants and revoke prior orders issued after the 2024 indictment of former Mayor Eric Adams.
The celebrations concluded with a massive citywide block party in the Canyon of Heroes, attended by tens of thousands despite freezing weather, with appearances by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Cynthia Nixon, and Lucy Dacus.
