Watching prom
Whether attending in person or watching from home, keep in mind early arrivals and or delays could occur. This should be taken into consideration no matter how you participate.
In-person viewing
People are welcome to watch the red carpet in person. Those wishing to do so must purchase seating in the VIP bleachers.
Tickets for the VIP bleacher seating will be available soon. This is the only way, according to the Racine Founder’s Rotary, that people will be able to view the motorcade at the event.
“We recommend students (and bleacher guests) carpool. Not only is it safer when returning to Racine but it also helps shorten the motorcade lines, ensuring we can get all guests into the event as quickly as possible,” stated the post. “Buses, limos, etc have always been fun modes of transportation for students and helps with this initiative.”
