The campaign has not formally announced the location or details on getting access, but they said earlier this week that the event would take place at 1:30 p.m.
Federal, state, and local law enforcement have received notifications and are planning for the event, sources said.
On Thursday evening, the Federal Aviation Administration announced that a temporary flight restriction would be in place for Saturday afternoon over the Yardley area for “VIP movement,” a common indication that the president will be making an appearance.

Following his event in Bucks County, the president will head to large campaign rallies in Reading and then Butler County as part of his final push to gain votes.
Trump’s Bucks County rally was originally slated for earlier this week in Upper Bucks County. Several locations in Upper Bucks County were scouted before the date was pushed for Halloween.

The president’s campaign and that of Democratic challenger Joe Biden have focused on Pennsylvania as a key state for winning the election.
Pennsylvania Democratic Party spokesman Andres Anzola responded to Trump planning events in the state on Halloween. He pointed to the financial impacts of COVID-19 and 227,000 deaths.
“All of which means that for Pennsylvania voters, the scariest thing on their streets this Halloween will be Donald Trump,” he said.
