It’s that exciting time of year when high school seniors are preparing to graduate and ready to celebrate. We are thrilled to welcome High School Grads to the 2019 Disneyland Resort Grad Nite, where Grads can have a blast during the private party at Disney California Adventure park!

Let’s take a look at the top 9 ways our Grads can have an awesome time at the 2019 Grad Nite Party*:

1. Dance, dance, and dance some more! Grads can head over to the VIP Street Party on Hollywood Blvd, groove over to Cars Land, and dash over to the Pixar Pier Dance parties and show off their favorite dance moves throughout the night!

2. Disney California Adventure Park will be FULL of Character! All throughout the park, Grads can meet some of their favorite characters to pose and take pictures with!

3. Speaking of pictures, new to this year – Grads will have their own 2019 Grad Nite Snapchat filter!

4. In Cars Land, Grads can join in with Luigi and friends as they show off their dance moves in Luigi’s Rollickin’ Roadsters, Mater will spin the Grads round and round on Mater’s Junkyard Jamboree, and Grads can race their friends to the finish line on Radiator Springs Racers.

5. Take flight in Grizzly Peak! Grads can take in the beautiful sights and smells of Paris, Fiji, Africa, and more while they are Soarin’ Around the World in their very own hang glider!

6. Rocket Raccoon needs Grads’ help in Hollywood Land! Grads will be recruited to climb aboard Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT! – where they can join Rocket on a thrilling mission to rescue the Guardians of the Galaxy from The Collector’s fortress!

7. Over in Paradise Gardens, Grads can take a peaceful ride on the Golden Zephyr and enroll in Goofy’s Sky School.

8. Let’s not forget PIXAR PIER! The pier will be filled to the brim with awesome attractions like the Incredicoaster, Pixar Pal-A-Round, Toy Story Midway Mania!, and the all-new Jessie’s Critter Carousel!

9. At the end of the evening, Grads gather their friends and head over to Pixar Pier for a special presentation of World of Color Nighttime Spectacular, designed just for the Class of 2019! Paradise Gardens Park splashes to life with hundreds of colorful dancing fountains, dynamic lighting, lasers, projections, and breathtaking fire effects, all theatrically choreographed to some of the year’s hottest tunes. It’s the perfect farewell celebration for Grad Nite 2019 as the nighttime spectacular salutes their Senior Year and inspires everyone to look forward to an exciting horizon of new adventures!

10. BONUS – Chaperones will have their very own Chaperone Lounge to enjoy some snacks and unwind for a bit throughout the night.

Sounds like a blast, right?! We look forward to helping our Grads create memories that will last a lifetime! Congratulations to the Class of 2019!
