Where is Trump today? President Trump expected back in Florida this weekend, What to know (2025)

President Donald Trump is returning to his Florida home again this weekend, right before St. Patrick's Day and his youngest son and father-in-law's birthdays next week.

Last weekend, First Lady Melania Trump's father Viktor Knavs and Elon Musk joined President Trump on his sixth visit to Mar-a-Lago since taking office in January.

If you don’t know, Trump’s primary residence is at Mar-a-Lago, his club and resort in Palm Beach, Florida. During his first presidency, it was often referred to as the “Southern White House” or "Winter White House” because of the amount of time he spent here.

According to The Palm Beach Daily NewsandFAA temporary flight restrictions "for VIP movements"issued this week, Trump is expected to arrive in Palm Beach County on the evening of Friday, March 14, and leave on Sunday, March 16 — which means he will be in the Sunshine State for St. Patrick's Day weekend (St. Patrick's Day is on Monday, March 17).

That also means that Southern Boulevard in Palm Beach County will likely be lined with some Trump supporters, protestors and anyone else who wants to catch a glimpse of thepresidential motorcade that will escort Trumpto and from his Florida home on Friday and Sunday.

Here’s how to watch the presidential motorcade in Palm Beach the weekend of March 14-16, 2025.

Where does Donald Trump live in Florida?

The Mar-a-Lago resort and club in Palm Beach has been the primary residence of Donald, Melania and Barron Trump since 2019. But Barron hasn't spent as much time there as-of-late, since he's become an NYU student.

In 1985, Donald Trump paid $10 million for the 17-acre estate that is now Mar-a-Lago. It originally boasted 33 bathrooms, three bomb shelters and a nine-hole golf course.

Ten years later, Trump updated the already-luxurious estate and converted it into an even-more ritzy private "Mar-a-Lago Club" with a spa, tennis and croquet courts, ballroom and a beach club.

The size of the living quarters at Mar-a-Lago are speculated to be somewhere between 2,000 and 3,000 square feet. The private club has around 500 members. The ballroom was completed in 2005.

How old is Barron Trump? His birthday is next week

Thursday, March 20, 2025, isBarron Trump's 19th birthday. It's also the last day of classes before NYU's spring break begins (if you're counting Friday, March 21, as part of the break). And four days after his birthday, Barron Trump's grandfather will celebrate his 81st. Viktor Knavs, Donald Trump's father-in-law and Melania Trump's father, will turn 81 on Monday, March 24.

And the two seem to be close. Knavs doesn’t just show up for the milestone events for the president and first lady, he’s usually the man standing next totheir only son, Barron Trump (see above photo gallery).

The youngest child of Donald and Melania Trump experienced a lot in his 18th year:High school graduation fromOxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach, Florida; an assassination attempt on his father in summer 2024; life in the public eye; the 2024 presidential election; and Inauguration Day.

We don't know whether Barron Trump will spend spring break at Trump Tower in Manhattan, New York, which is close to NYU's Stern School of Business, at the White House in Washington, D.C., or if he will venture further South to Palm Beach.

Before Barron Trump turned 18, he was largely kept out of the spotlight because of Melania Trump's protective nature. He's shown interest in his father's politics, particularly during the 2024 presidential election, though he did not make many public appearances. He has not many many public appearances since Inauguration Day.

What city in Florida is Mar-a-Lago in? Here’s a map

The Mar-a-Lago resort and club is in Palm Beach, Florida, and sits just about 15 minutes away from the Palm Beach International airport (PBI).

How, when, where to watch Trump's presidential motorcade to, from Mar-a-Lago

If you want to see Donald Trump when he's in Palm Beach County, your best shot is to watch the presidential motorcade en route to or from the Palm Beach International Airport this weekend.

Watching the motorcade is kind of like watching a rocket launch lift off from NASA's Kennedy Space Center or the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Brevard County. People from Palm Beach County and beyond often line up along Southern Boulevard and wait to watch Trump's motorcade pass by.

Trump supporters usually line up along Southern Boulevard going east toward Mar-a-Lago. If you don’t know, Southern Boulevard is the main road next to PBI, where Trump typically flies into the air strip designated for private planes.

Even when he wasn’t president, you could sometimes see people parked on the side of the road near the airport, looking at his private plane which said “Trump” in big, gold letters.

In 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic, thousands of Trump supporters would line up on Southern Boulevard to watch the Trump motorcade, which typically has from 15 to 20 cars in it. You can drive by Mar-a-Lago, too. But the property is private, so you can’t visit the actual club unless you’re a member.

The main entrance to Mar-a-Lago is on South Ocean Boulevard in Palm Beach. You can park and walk by, but you'll be in the roadway.

It isn’t uncommon for people to pull over their cars to catch a view of the famous club. It is dangerous, though, because there is no sidewalk, and there's no shoulder on the side of the road next to the private club.

It's important to remember that the roads surrounding Mar-a-Lago close when the president is in town. If you want a glimpse of his private club, you'll have to wait until after he leaves Florida. The best place to watch the motorcade pass is along Southern Boulevard, near the Palm Beach International Airport.
