What is Grad Night?  

Grad Night is a long-standing tradition that celebrates our graduates in a safe, sober, and unforgettable

way. At Los Gatos High School the event is 100% parent-organized, funded, and executed. This treasured event began in  1959 and provides a safe and sober celebration for our school's graduates. In the past it has been held on campus, at a bowling alley, at a park, and at Great America. The event is full of fun activities, unexpected entertainment, delicious food, and more. Specific details are kept secret so the graduates will be surprised and delighted throughout the night.

2026 LGHS Grad Night

This year, Grad Night will be held on campus. We are proud to keep this tradition going for the 39th year! Grad Night 2026 will be a safe and sober night, full of surprises, laughter, and joy. As with previous years, graduates are encouraged and expected to stay for the entire event. To ensure safety, if a student wishes to leave prior to 4am, a parent must notified.

How Parents Help 
Parent support is paramount!  The weeks leading up to graduation are busy for all, so please keep the following in mind:

• Read all communications – emails will come from LGHS or info@lghsgradnight.com 
• Buy your ticket EARLY – since this is a self-funded event, we need your ticket sales to pay the deposits for the venue and vendors
• Volunteer –  volunteer at Grad Night or look for jobs as the needs are posted
• Positive Support – Hype up the event to your student, encourage attendance, and support the event by blocking out your schedule to drop off and pick up your graduate at LGHS.  Please do not host your own events during Grad Night hours!
