It's expected to be a dramatic show of force from Democrats as they look to secure a second term in the White House for President Joe Biden — and it'll be a show with heavy impacts on traffic around midtown Manhattan.

It will all be part of a one-of-a-kind event at Radio City Music Hall on Thursday, where Biden will share the stage with two of his predecessors: Barack Obama and Bill Clinton.

About 3,000 attendees are expected, adding to the hectic scene anticipated for this particular part of midtown. It will be heavily patrolled and essentially locked down. Those who work in the area may want to work from home if possible.

The Biden camp had hoped to raise $15 million Thursday night, which it hopes to use to put Obama and Clinton to work on its behalf in battleground states. According to his campaign, it has surpassed expectations.

The Associated Press reports Biden's campaign is raising a whopping $25 million, setting a record for the biggest haul for a political event, his campaign said.
