Charlie Kirk Memorial Unveiling
Sept 10, 2026.
There were three different posters for the unveiling.
One poster had No Time listed
Another, said Noon.
Another said @ 2:23 pm
(with no explanation)
I arrived early but
couldn’t find the unveiling… AND …
what time was it really?
At about 2:30 …. I finally saw an artful U.S. flag in the distance, (far right in the picture), not knowing THAT was the statue….

The memorial was less about Charlie Kirk and more about the obnoxious influencer Jake Lang
Seems this latest confusion was because their permit had been revoked by the NYPD for a Global Fashion and Culture Show, accounting for the very brief unveiling as the Kirk Memorial was relocated and then rushed out of Times Square.
The Global Fashion and Culture Event was the main attraction.

Meanwhile, New York artist Sergio Furnari unveiled his statue in honor of Charlie Kirk …. from the back of a truck, at 2:23 pm, marking the moment Charlie was shot (12;23 in Utah). But the unveiling was short-lived, ending quickly with a female placing flowers in the statue’s hands and then …. the truck drove away with a police escort.
As the memorial left Times Square, Jake Lang and his crew chanted “Avenge Charlie Kirk!” and “They Can’t Kill us all” as they marched with their banner.
Confrontations and physical altercations followed along as they walked to 8th Ave and 47th, where the police forced/helped LANG in to a taxi. (might want to start video at about 2:00)
It was all an embarrassing memorial, supposedly to honor Charlie: ”Shame on all the influencers. Shame on you for hijacking Charlie’s memorial” theviraggulyas
The artist (on the left) spent $100,000 of his own money to create this tribute.Unfortunately, respect given to his Charlie Kirk memorial was overwhelmed by these social influencers.[aka high jacked]
Jake Lang and his hot tempered displays were disgraceful.
