Grad Bash is a treasured tradition for high school seniors across Florida. It promises a memorable evening, a rite of passage that punctuates our transition from high school to the next chapter of our lives. Unfortunately, the exciting celebration at Universal Orlando is set to be replaced by an event at Busch Gardens. While Busch Gardens is an amazing park, it simply doesn't capture the same essence and magic that Universal does for our grads.

Universal Orlando has hosted Grad Bash for years, offering students the thrilling experience of themed rides, movie sets, and unparalleled entertainment. It’s the place where beloved characters come to life, creating an extraordinary backdrop for the final hurrah of our high school days. The universal appeal and energy of the park have always made it an unforgettable experience, one that graduates talk about for years to come.

On the contrary, relocating this event to Busch Gardens changes the dynamics entirely. Universal Orlando offers a more centralized location for schools across the state, providing easier access for all students. Moreover, the variety and excitement of Universal attractions better suit the vibrant energy that grads bring to the celebration.

Additionally, Universal’s infrastructure is better equipped to handle large groups, ensuring a safe and seamless event. Past participants have applauded the smooth execution of Grad Bash at Universal, citing efficient organization and the benefit of enclosed areas for enhanced security and peace of mind.

We kindly urge school administrators, event coordinators, and district officials to reconsider this decision. Consider the memories and magical moments that a Grad Bash at Universal creates. Let us uphold a tradition that has left such a lasting impact on countless graduates before us.

Sign this petition to bring back Grad Bash to its rightful home at Universal Orlando and help our seniors create memories that will last a lifetime.
