The 2026 Waukon High School Prom is scheduled to be held this Saturday, April 25 at the Waukon Middle School gymnasium. Doors will open to the public at 7 p.m. for the Grand March, which is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m.

Parents, family and community members may view the Grand March either seated in the auditorium or standing in the gym.

Following the Grand March will be the coronation of this year’s Prom King and Queen.

Post Prom will offer a variety of activities, inflatables, games and contests, and will take place following the Prom dance, from 10:30 p.m.-2:30 a.m., in the Waukon High School gymnasium. Doors will close at 11 p.m. for admission to the Post Prom events. Food will be available. Prizes have been donated by local businesses and community members and will be awarded to every student in attendance.
