Due to the coronavirus global pandemic, life is different for the millions of students around the world who won ‘t be able to experience events like graduation and their proms. Face to face social network is looking to rectify that issue while making sure everyone is social distancing.

The event goes down next Thursday, May 7, at 8 p.m. ET. Houseparty is inviting young teens and even adults to throw on their best prom fits to attend the free event. Attendees will be able to take snapshots of their prom drip by utilizing the natural photobooth layout of Houseparty while dancing the night away.
Oh, and #ClubQuarantine’s creator DJ D-Nice will be providing the sound with a special setlist just for the occasion. Zack Bia will also be spinning on the 1s and 2s. When you open the Houseparty app at 8 p.m., you will immediately be greeted by the sounds of D-Nice and will be able to bring in the vibes he is providing into your private prom that can feature up to 8 people at a time.
