The White House has reportedly confirmed that US President Donald Trump will attend an exclusive event for top holders of the TRUMP meme coin at his Florida mansion on Saturday, after questions arose earlier this month about whether he would attend.
Reuters reported on Friday that the White House confirmed that President Trump will deliver the keynote address at a gala luncheon hosted by the company that developed the official Trump (TRUMP) meme coin.
The gala will be held at Mar-a-Lago. The top 297 TRUMP token holders will be able to participate, and the top 29 will also be eligible to participate in a private reception with the president.
When the event was announced in March, White House officials told Politico that the event was not locked into Trump’s schedule and was held on the same day Trump said he would attend the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in Washington, D.C., for the first time as president.

The event’s terms and conditions also state that President Trump may not be able to attend the event and that it “may be canceled for any reason.”
The possibility of Trump attending the event has been a sticking point for some lawmakers, who have criticized the event as a conflict of interest for the president.
Earlier this month, Democratic senators Elizabeth Warren, Richard Blumenthal, and Adam Schiff reportedly sent a letter to Bill Zanker, the man behind the TRUMP meme coin, questioning whether President Trump intended to “dangle access” to himself at an upcoming event.

“The organizers are promoting the conference by dangling access to President Trump to potential attendees on a day when President Trump may not actually be able to attend (and in doing so, encouraging the purchase of meme coins that generate transaction fees for the president and his family),” the letter said.
This is the second event for TRUMP token holders. The first incident took place at President Trump’s golf club in May 2025 and prompted criticism that Trump was using his position as president for personal financial gain.
