New York, United States – Zohran Mamdani was officially inaugurated as the Mayor of New York City on Thu, Jan 1, 2026. The event marked the beginning of a new leadership era for the city.

The ceremony featured the use of a historic Quran from the New York Public Library and a personal Quran belonging to Mamdani's grandfather.

Later on the same day, a public ceremony took place on the steps of City Hall. Tens of thousands of supporters attended despite cold weather conditions.

The inauguration included a seven-block-long public block party, allowing broader public participation. Notable political figures, such as Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Bernie Sanders, were present and addressed the attendees.

Mamdani emphasized a message of unity and affordability, underscored by a commitment to raising taxes on the ultra-wealthy and large corporations. This policy aligns with his campaign promises, including increasing the corporate tax rate to 11.5% and implementing a 2% tax increase on incomes over $1 million annually.

On the same day, Mamdani introduced executive orders focused on housing policies. These included the establishment of two city task forces to assess city-owned land for housing development and to identify strategies to increase housing availability. The initiatives aim to address the city's affordability crisis by protecting tenants and promoting the construction of affordable housing.
