Meet the graduates / lei greeting
Sunday, May 29, 2022 | Neal S. Blaisdell Exhibition Hall
At the conclusion of the Commencement ceremony, graduates will exit the Arena and proceed to the Exhibition Hall to prepare to meet their ‘ohana. Due to capacity restrictions, all lei greeting attendees MUST have a Commencement ticket for entry into the Exhibition Hall. Guests attending the Commencement will proceed directly to the Exhibition Hall following the ceremony. Guests ONLY attending the lei greeting will ENTER the Exhibition Hall via the East Concourse Door (see Meet the Graduates map) and MUST present a Commencement ticket upon entry. Each Commencement ticket will admit ONE person. No ticket, no entry, no exceptions.
IMPORTANT
