A day to remember -- 8 a.m. Eastern Time September 11 -- broadcast dedication & concert

LIVE at 8:30am ET from New York City,  the memorial ceremony at the World Trade Center site.  President Obama, former President Bush, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and former Governor George Pataki are all expected to attend.
Following the New York memorial, until 8pm ET on C‑SPAN, we will draw from archival footage and interviews to bring you memories of that day from Bush Administration officials, congressional leaders, military pilots and others. And we’ll hear viewers share their memories of September 11 and its aftermath over the phone, by e-mail and Twitter.
The weekend of 9/11 events culminates tonight on C‑SPAN with the Kennedy Center's "Concert of Hope."  The concert will feature readings and reflections between pieces of music.  Pres. Obama and the first lady are expected to attend with the President making remarks during the program.
