Trump Reports $122,050 in Donated Sports Tickets for 2025

Secret Service expense logs show six-figure protection bills for some trips, raising questions about ticket valuation and public cost.

Overview

  • The annual financial disclosure released Wednesday, July 1, 2026, lists $122,050 in donated tickets to ten sporting events that President Trump received in 2025.
  • The largest donation listed was 10 Super Bowl LIX tickets from New Orleans Saints owner Gayle Benson valued at $50,000, making the president’s Super Bowl attendance a focal point of the filings.
  • Other named donors and reported values include Rolex (10 US Open tickets, $25,000), FIFA president Gianni Infantino (10 tickets, $15,000), the PGA of America (15 Ryder Cup tickets, $11,250), the France family (15 Daytona 500 tickets, $7,500), and UFC CEO Dana White (30 tickets, $6,750).
  • Secret Service records published with the disclosure show large taxpayer costs for protection and travel, with the Daytona 500 trip generating $561,842.63 in expenses and the first four major events in his second term costing nearly $800,000 combined.
  • The filings note reporting obligations under the Foreign Gifts and Decorations Act and related disclosure rules, the White House declined to detail how ticket values were set, and Trump is reported to be expected at the July 19, 2026 World Cup final in New Jersey.
