Who Can Attend Night to Shine?
Night to Shine is an unforgettable prom night experience, centered on God's love, for people with special needs ages 14 and older. Each Night to Shine guest will be crowned King or Queen for the night and enjoy dinner, dancing, photography stations, karaoke, and more! For those who need a break from the party, a quieter lounge and sensory room will be available where guests can sit and relax until they are rested and ready to return to the dance floor!
Will I be by myself all night?
Each one of our Kings and Queens will have their own "Buddy" for the whole evening. Each buddy will be there to assist our guests with whatever needs they will have and to make sure they have the best night of their lives!
Where will Parents and Caregivers be?
After dropping your guest off at Night to Shine with their Buddy, all parents and caregivers are invited to attend a special respite area created just for you.
