Disneyland Has Cancelled Grad Night Events For 2020
In a move that is expected but still quite sad, Disneyland has made the official announcements that all Grad Night Events scheduled to take place at Disneyland for 2020 have been cancelled.
For those unfamiliar, Grad Nights are a long-standing tradition at Disneyland Resort with local area High Schools coming as a class to enjoy rides, special events and more during an after-hours soiree. Grad Nights are a massive event during late Spring/Early Summer each year and an absolute rite of passage for kids before graduation.
Here’s a look at the official announcement as it appears on Disneyland.com
As you can see from the announcement above Disneyland advised that they are reaching out to ALL group organizers directly to inform them of the cancellations.
Grad Nite Dates For 2020
The cancellation includes ALL Grad Nite dates for 2020. These are as follows:
- May 8, 9, 15, 16, 20, 26, 27, 29, or 30
- June 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 12, or 13
Disneyland was clear to point out in the cancellation notification that they look forward to hosting Grad Nite events for years to come. However, our hearts go out to this year’s seniors. Many schools begin making Grad Nite Plans before the school year even starts. This year’s Grad Nite dates were actually announced last June!
However, with the re-opening of Disneyland Resort seeming less and less uncertain cancelling the event become more and more of a necessity. Just yesterday California Governor Gavin Newsom spoke to the press to say mass gatherings may not be permissible again until Fall 2020. This was followed by an announcement by the LA Mayors office saying that he wasn’t sure if mass gatherings would be approved for the Los Angeles area until at least 2021.
As of going to print, Disneyland has closed its gates indefinitely. This is a story we continue to follow closely and we’ll update you as soon as we know more!
