ALLENDALE, S.C. () — The 2025 Allendale-Fairfax High School graduation ceremony is moving back to TIGER Stadium. The decision comes after the district announced on Facebook back on May 23 that the event would be moved indoors due to “numerous rumors of threats.”

After working closely with state, county, and local law enforcement, district leaders say this is the best decision for students and families to give the Class of 2025 the ceremony they deserve.

Multiple law enforcement agencies will be on site. Anyone who breaks safety rules will be removed—and possibly arrested.

Here’s what you need to know before you arrive:

  • No bags allowed.
  • No flowers, balloons, or noise-makers.
  • All guests will go through metal detectors and handheld wand screening.
  • Stay seated during the entire ceremony.
  • Photos must be taken from your seat—don’t approach the stage or walk the aisles.
  • No loitering before or after the ceremony.
  • Guests must leave the stadium immediately afterward.

If it rains, the ceremony moves indoors to the Allendale-Fairfax Elementary School gym.

If you can’t make it, the graduation will be streamed live on YouTube and Facebook.
