The hardest ticket to get in Colorado this week — and the most expensive — will be a seat to be in attendance when former President Donald Trump returns to Colorado.
He will address a crowd Saturday in Aspen, making his first campaign appearance since 2020, when he stumped for former U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner.
A seat at the dinner for a couple will cost $25,000, while host levels for a couple cost $100,000 and $500,000. But, the invite on the Trump 47 Committee page indicates the event is sold out. The invite did not list a time or location for the fundraiser.
The invite indicates a guest waitlist is forming for those wishing to still get in the event at [email protected].
Hosts of the event include Former Ambassador Duke Buchan III and Hannah Buchan, Mindy and Jeff Hildebrand, Warren Lichtenstein, Andrew McKenna, Drew McKnight, Carol and Larry A. Mizel, Amy and John Phelan, and Diane and Tom Smith, a link at Fox 31 News indicates.
The flyer indicates the fundraiser is an effort of Trump 47 Committee, a joint fundraising committee authorized by Donald J. Trump for President 2024, Save America, the Republican National Committee, and state Republican Parties in 43 states and territories, including Colorado, according to Colorado GOP Chairman Dave Williams. The Colorado GOP joined the committee in late July.
