Frequently Asked Questions
What is an after prom party?
An after prom party is an event that takes place after your school's official prom ends, usually starting around 11:30pm or midnight and going until 3-4am. Instead of going home when prom ends, students continue celebrating at nightclubs, rooftops, or private venues in NYC. After prom parties feature DJs, dancing, and a nightlife atmosphere, it's the unofficial second half of prom night that many students look forward to even more than the prom itself.
How much do after prom tickets cost?
General admission tickets typically start at $50 per person. VIP tickets with additional perks usually range from $75-$100. Prices may increase as the events sell out, so buying early often saves money. Group discounts are available for parties of 10 or more.

What should I wear to after prom?
Most students come straight from prom in their formal attire, dresses, suits, and tuxedos are totally welcome and encouraged. However, you can also change into something more comfortable if you prefer. Many students do a fit change before coming out to the after party. There's no strict dress code, but keep it classy. This is still a special night. No athletic wear, shorts, or overly casual clothing.
After Prom Parties
Proms - the pinnacle events of a high school student's social life. In the early days of high school proms, this nighttime dance served a function similar to a debutante ball. Proms were times of firsts: the first adult social event for teenagers; the first time taking the family car out after dark; the first real dress-up affair; and so forth. As time progressed the prom went from being held at the high school gym and was slowly traded for hotel ballrooms, country clubs, and event spaces.
