The guests who spent thousands of dollars to buy tickets to the New Year party at the Mar-a-Lago resort were surprised when Trump canceled their attendance at the last minute.

No official explanation has been made about President Donald Trump's decision to drop out of Florida's annual New Year's Eve event at the last minute and set off for Washington.

Without the President, the night party atmosphere on December 31 became more gloomy.

Celebrity artists from decades ago, Vanilla Ice and Berlin, performed on the main stage, while selfie party guests with Mr. Giuliani in a velvet tuxedo and Fox News Judge host Jeanine Pirro,

Each banquet table for 10 people, not applicable social distance, is arranged in a party room decorated with flowers and white candles.

Many guests and artists expressed disappointment when CNN reported on December 30 that Trump would leave Florida soon.

At first, guests and artists were initially hesitant to attend the event because it was uncertain if Trump was present or not.

About 500 tickets were sold out for the party this year, slightly lower than in previous years.

By the end of December 30, Trump was still expected to be at the party, but by that night, information that he and his wife Melania would leave early the next day began to spread.

During his rest in Mar-a-Lago, the President of the United States appeared mostly in public, while continuing to accuse the election of fraud and call for an attempt to "overturn" when parliament meets.

According to many sources, Trump was always irritable during his vacation and worried about everything from election results to the renovation of First Lady Melania's private residence.
