It's All About Disney Grad Nite

By Mike Aquinas

Universal studios and a few other studios, all have tried to reach upto the level of Disney Grad Nite by introducing similar all-nite parties but the Disney Grad Nite still stands tall as compared to its other contemporaries. Parents love to tell stories about the Disney Grad Nite to their high school graduating students. Everyone since'61 has been a part of Disney Grad Nite and only a few are unfortunate enough not to enjoy it.

In the year 2009, it was moved from the Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom to Disney's Hollywood Studios but it is thought that it will be moved back to its old place. As we all know, there is no place like Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom to have fun. It is an all night event and starts from 9:00 p. M. And lasts till 6:00 a. M.

Unfortunately some grads take unnecessary advantage of this night to indulge in activities like illegal drinking, doing drugs and going unruly and wild on the premises. This not only hurts themselves but also their fellow students. Not only you ruin your enjoyment tie but also the time of your fellows. Several students have been turned away from the gates when found in possession of drugs, alcohol etc.

Disney has taken some strict actions for discouraging such activities. Due to some unfortunate deaths and other accidents like passing out of students, the Disney has closed some places like the Tom Sawyer's Island and Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln. In the starts all rides and attraction were open but now Disney carefully chooses which ones to allow and which ones to close.

The nite starts at Main Street and then it moves to the dance floor, followed by fireworks at 11:30 p. M. Disneyland is decorated specially for this occasion and includes sponsorship stalls and several dance clubs. Along with special lightning is done and even the darkest areas of the Disneyland are brightly lit. An illuminated walkway with music blaring from the speakers of top songs and artists of that year, Disneyland becomes a wonderland ever more.

The night is marked by live performances which have been rated as the best part of the evening. These music bands and artists take the best part of the evening and the students go wild during these performances. Very well known artists and bands have given live performances each year in these grad nites. Students always rank it to be the best part as famous artists like The Last Goodnight, Lesley Roy, Ne-Yo, Omarion, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Fall Out Boy, Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, Destiny's Child and the Backstreet Boys have been within the reach of the grads.

Apart from this, each year Disney surprises the participating grads through acts and shows that are shown for the first time on this night. Students can see the wonderful and famous fireworks of the Disney at 11:30 every year on this nite. Apart from this, the decorations are specially done and all walkways and dark places in the Disney are illuminated by brilliant lights.

Disney Grad Nite is the best time of the year for high schools graduating class and it starts at 9:00 and lasts all night till 6:00 a. M. It should be taken advantage of but do not blow your chances away by violating the rules set down by Disney.
