Tickets are limited and sell out quickly. They will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis.
A waitlist will be kept if tickets are sold out or if you have purchased the maximum amount per graduate.
Confirmation emails will be sent before May 19. If multiple people request tickets under the graduate's name, we will contact all parties, including the graduate, to help finalize the requests.
We will hold 1 of the 3 free tickets at the door of the KDCC for each graduate. This ticket is reserved for the actual graduate and is held at the door so they can enter the reception immediately upon arrival.
ESWs will have the remaining free tickets (and any additional tickets confirmed) available for payment and pick-up in all four Whitehorse high schools leading up to the ceremony. There will also be an opportunity for others to pick up their tickets prior to the ceremony. These dates will be emailed once determined.
