Join Us for the First Annual SVGOP Trump Dinner!
Thursday, April 16th, 7-10 PM
VIP Reception, 6-7 PM
Since Mar-a-Lago is a bit too far, we chose the Corinthian Grand Ballroom, Silicon Valley’s most elegant and historic private venue for SVGOP’s Trump Dinner. Seated at round banquet tables set with linens, china and glassware, we can dream of what a fancy dinner might be like with President Trump!
Dinner begins at 7:00 PM and includes salad, pasta, and a choice of 2-entrees and sides. Wine is served with dinner.
Special Guests
Gloria Romero, Lt. Governor Candidate
Our guest speaker for the evening is Gloria Romero, candidate for Lt. Governor, and the one that Assemblyman Carl DeMaio called the most likely Republican to get elected to statewide office in November. Romero, a former state senator from 2001 to 2010, was the first woman to serve as the Democratic Majority Leader of the California State Senate. Unhappy with the direction her party was taking, Romero saw something in Donald Trump that enticed her to become a Republican. In 2024, she put on her red MAGA hat and was invited to speak at Trump’s Coachella Rally!
Comedian Jeff Applebaum
Our Master of Ceremonies for the evening will be the hilarious Jeff Applebaum! Many of you will remember his side-splitting performance as our comedian at last year’s Christmas dinner, where he had the room in stitches. Now he’s back in the emcee role, delivering quick quips and keeping the festivities rolling as we celebrate our shared values and rally for the future. Secure your tickets today—don’t miss this evening of great company, inspiring speakers, and plenty of laughs!
VIP Reception prior to the Dinner Banquet
Prior to the 7:00 PM dinner, you can choose to attend a smaller, more intimate event with our speaker from 6 - 7 PM that evening. At the VIP Reception, you’ll enjoy champagne and appetizers as you chat with Gloria Romero. Have your photo taken with the next Lt. Governor of California!
