There will be limited on-site parking at the Henrico Sports & Events Center. Said parking will open 90 minutes prior to each ceremony and require both a parking pass and a ticket -- so the school district encourages attendees to carpool. Graduates will be shuttled by bus to reduce traffic and ensure they arrive to their respective ceremonies on time.
The doors at the Henrico Sports & Events Center will open an hour before each ceremony.
If you can't make it to your loved one's ceremony, all ceremonies will be livestreamed on the school division's website. Replays can be watched later on either the school district's YouTube channel or its cable channel, which is 99 for Comcast customers and 2138 for Verizon FiOS customers.
