If you want to rub elbows with President-elect Donald Trump and his incoming administration during inaugural celebrations, it’ll cost you — between half a million and $2 million, specifically.
The Trump team has introduced a list of perks for donors over the Jan. 20 weekend, with packages starting at $50,000, according to a copy of the “Trump Vance Inaugural Committee Benefits” prospectus obtained by Axios. The benefits, first reported by the New York Times, include up to six tickets to eight different events between Jan. 17 and the big day, on Jan. 20.
Big spenders can score invites to a reception with Trump’s incoming cabinet nominees, an interfaith service and a candlelight dinner with the incoming president and first lady, Melania Trump.
Donors who either give $50,000 or raise $100,000 get two tickets to a rally and reception scheduled for the Saturday before the inauguration, as well as hotel rooms and invites to the Jan. 20 swearing-in ceremony, parade and evening ball. Only those who either give $1 million or raise $2 million will get two seats to a Jan. 18 dinner with Vice President-elect JD Vance and his wife, Usha Vance, according to the flier.
The practice of giving high-dollar donors access to inauguration events is not unusual, as former President Barack Obama and President Joe Biden handed out access to their own swearing-in celebrations over the last decade. General tickets to the inauguration ceremony are free, but are limited and often in high demand.
