Elon Musk rang in 2025 with a blowout party at President-elect Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.
In a video clip posted online, the world’s richest man was spotted dancing with his son, X AE A-XII, perched on his shoulders near Trump.
The Tesla chief has reportedly been staying in a cottage on the property, just a few hundred feet from the main house on Trump’s estate in Palm Beach, Florida. The New York Times reported that Musk moved into the property around Election Day.
The cottage has previously been rented out for at least $2,000 a night, a source told the Times.
The New Year’s Eve gala was a star-studded affair, drawing celebrities, high-profile politicians, and close associates of Trump.

Among the guests pictured at the event were Musk’s mother, Maye, Vice President-elect JD Vance, and Sen. Ted Cruz.
Boxing promoter Don King and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis, with whom Musk shares three children, were also in attendance.
Lara Trump, Trump’s daughter-in-law, sang a cover of Tom Petty’s song “I Won’t Back Down” for the crowd and guests watched a fireworks display ahead of the countdown to midnight.

Trump spoke briefly to reporters as he entered the party, saying what he was looking forward to in 2025.
“Just a great year; I think we’re going to do fantastically well as a country; we’re going to bring it back; it has to be brought back,” he said.
Trump also confirmed plans to attend the funeral of Jimmy Carter, the former US president who died at the age of 100 last week.
