This special prom night experience on Friday, February 13, 2026 at 5PM-9PM. It is filled with dancing, food, karaoke, limo rides, a VIP red carpet experience, games, and more! The highlight of the night is when each guest will be crowned king or queen. ​​

The event is open to anyone living with intellectual or developmental disabilities, ages 14 and older.  ​​

Admission is free but tickets are limited and registration is REQUIRED.​

Each Honored Guest will be assigned a "Buddy" for the evening, helping the guest navigate the different areas, assisting with whatever needs they have, and to make sure they have the best night of their lives! If you would like a family member, friend or caregiver to be the guest's buddy, that individual MUST register as a volunteer, complete a background check and attend the volunteer training.​​​​

Our Sensory Room and Quiet Room will be separate spaces this year! We are also bringing back our Craft Room, and we are excited to share that there will be a large Game Room this year hosted by Lakeside's adult special needs ministry partner Sharon's Place!​​

Family and Caregivers are able to attend the Crowning Ceremony at 7pm in the Lakeside Sanctuary, and at this time no background check is needed, nor registration required to attend.​​​​

We encourage all parent/caregivers to attend the complementary Respite Dinner that is being hosted at First Baptist Church Canton from 5:30-6:45pm. There will be a question at the end of the Honored Guest Registration asking about your RSVP to the dinner. ​​

Important: Other than preapproved volunteers, or for the Crowning Ceremony, parents & caregivers will NOT be allowed in any other areas of the church, at any other time, including into the dance. ​

Once the Honored Guest is Registered, you will begin to receive communications from our NTS Guest Registration Team.

Each email will go over some of the finer details the parents/caregivers AND the Honored Guest will need to know!
