President Donald Trump will host a high-profile dinner with tech leaders on Thursday in the newly renovated Rose Garden, now dubbed the “Rose Garden Club.”
The guest list includes Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, Apple’s Tim Cook, Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates, Google’s Sundar Pichai, and OpenAI’s Sam Altman, according to the White House.

The dinner coincides with a rare public event by First Lady Melania Trump, who will host an afternoon forum on artificial intelligence, featuring Pichai as a speaker.
The evening gathering marks the official debut of the Rose Garden’s facelift, which now features stone paving modeled after Mar-a-Lago’s patio, new lighting, American flag–themed drainage grates, and embedded presidential seals.
White House officials said the redesigned space is meant for frequent outdoor dinners with political, business, and tech leaders. Trump personally oversaw the project, often checking in with workers and emphasizing his vision of a world-class venue.
