Best of all, you can skip all the stressful deadlines and details and let my team handle it for you!
2027 Grad Nite Deadlines
Organizing a trip for dozens (or hundreds!) of teenagers involves strict deadlines, specific Disney policies, and a lot of logistics. Keep in mind, these are our internal deadlines, which differ from Disney’s because we want to ensure everything is smooth sailing.
By requiring information early, we’re able to get your school the best availability and resolve any potential eligibility issues before it’s too late.
Here is exactly what you need to know to get your Class of 2027 registered, funded, and ready for the parks:
- Priority Registration: May, June, July for the following year. Our form is officially open for a limited number of schools. (For example, Class of 2027 can submit the form above in May, June, and July of 2026.)
- Priority Registration Deadline: August 14, 2026, is the deadline to create your file for 2027 Grad Nite dates.
- Late Registration Deadline: August 28, 2026, for late registration if dates are still available.
Dates sell out incredibly fast, and working together as a team ensures we have all the details put together before registration opens with Disney. When you let us handle the deadlines, the fun and excitement are all yours while we keep track of the paperwork!
Why Work With Us?
It’s important to know that registration is not on a first-come, first-served basis.
Handling the paperwork and deadlines is only part of the value we bring. Disney reviews each Grad Nite registration individually based on strict eligibility criteria AND submission date. By letting us manage your registration directly with Disney, you gain an expert advocate who streamlines the entire approval process and ensures your application is flawless before crucial cutoffs.
How Much is Disneyland Grad Nite?
Disney does not sell individual Grad Nite tickets at the gates or online to regular guests; they must be purchased as a group. As we work together, we can discuss which of the three ticket options your high school class would like to book:

| Option 1 (Private Party Only) |
Access to Disney California Adventure Park starting at 9:00 PM for the exclusive after-hours party. | $129 / person | $134 / person |
| Option 2 (Full-Day DCA + Party) |
Full-day access to Disney California Adventure during normal operating hours, plus the private party from 9:00 PM to 2:00 AM. | $165 / person | $199 / person |
| Option 3 (Park Hopper + Party) |
The ultimate package! Hop between Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure all day, followed by the private party at DCA until 2:00 AM. | $239 / person | $279 / person |
Bonus: Organizers also receive 1 Free Chaperone Ticket Package for every 20 paid Student Tickets!

Grad Nite Chaperone Guide & Logistics
Being a chaperone is a fun but serious responsibility. Disney requires all chaperones to be 25 years of age or older. Chaperones are expected to supervise, remain sober (zero tolerance for alcohol consumption during the event), and be available to handle any issues at security screenings.
Disney requires that all students and chaperones arrive together with their school. This means you may be needed to help coordinate bag checks, as Disney enforces strict security (including drug-sniffing canines and bag checks) at the screening area upon arrival.

School Planner FAQs: Disneyland Grad Nite
How many chaperones do we need?
Disneyland requires chaperones to attend Grad Nite with your students. As a bonus, for every 20 student tickets your school purchases, Disney typically provides one complimentary chaperone ticket of the exact same tier.
What’s the minimum group size?
While Disney caters to massive graduating classes, you generally need a minimum of 10-20 students to qualify as a standard group and receive the complimentary chaperone ticket benefits. If you have a smaller senior class, email me and we can look at the best ticket options for your specific group size.
Can we add Park Hoppers?
Yes! Ticket Option 3 is a full-day Park Hopper ticket. This allows your seniors to ride the classics at Disneyland Park during the day before heading over to Disney California Adventure for the exclusive 9:00 PM to 2:00 AM Grad Nite party.
What hotels accept group blocks for Grad Nite?
Not all hotels surrounding Disneyland are thrilled to host large groups of teenagers, so booking the right Grad Nite hotel blocks is crucial. We can work directly with walking-distance properties nearby to find the best fit for your group and budget. When you book your group through me, I will match your school with vetted hotels that happily accommodate student travel, bus parking, and chaperone requirements.
