Hello Seniors!
At the end of this school year, we are hopefully going back to DISNEYLAND!!! We say “hopefully” because the Disney Grad Nite tickets are assigned via lottery to schools that submit an application. Schools that have attended this special night previously have a higher chance of receiving the requested number of tickets and a more desirable date. Our 2026 graduating seniors attended the event in June 2026, so we are pretty hopeful.
We have submitted Friday, June 4th, and Sunday, June 6th, as potential dates, but we may end up with a 3rd alternate. Please be flexible!
What is Disney Grad Nite? It is one final night of magic and unforgettable memories for the high school graduating Class of 2027. Grads can experience a nighttime park celebration — closed to the public — to honor their accomplishments throughout the year, featuring a grad festivity with iconic attractions, special eats, DJs throughout, character meet & greets, fun photo backdrops, and more to capture their special moments.
Tickets will be on sale starting in December 2026!
