President Donald Trump on Thursday announced plans to bid for the World Expo of 2035 to be held in Miami, Fla.

"Today, I am announcing the United States’ intention to bid for the World Expo 2035. The Great State of Florida has expressed strong interest in hosting the Expo in Miami, which I fully support," Trump posted on Truth Social. "Miami Expo 2035 can be the next big milestone in our new Golden Age of America."

"I am appointing Miami native Secretary of State Marco Rubio to Chair the efforts of coordinating and advancing this exciting opportunity to convene the World," he continued. "We will create thousands of jobs, and add Billions of Dollars in GROWTH, to our Economy. In my First Term as President, I fought hard to bring the 2026 FIFA World Cup and 2028 LA Summer Olympics to the U.S.A. I now have the Honor of hosting as the 47th President, plus America250, G20 Doral, and the G7. I look forward to winning and participating in the Miami Expo 2035!"

Trump has long expressed admiration for the World Fairs of the Gilded Age that once served as showcases of major cities, including many American metropolises. His plans for America 250 have hearkened to many of those festivals as well.

The World Expo is a similar event, though it primarily focuses on national innovations and culture and typically doesn't feature the temporary neoclassical structures that were hallmarks of the World Fairs.
