We are so excited to be an official host church for this year’s Night to Shine, sponsored by the Tim Tebow Foundation. Night to Shine is an unforgettable prom night experience, centered on God’s love, for people with special needs, ages 14 and older.

We are blessed to be a part of this growing worldwide movement through the local church where thousands of people with special needs will be celebrated, given the royal treatment and reminded of God’s love for them!

To find out how you can be a part of this worldwide movement, scroll down to the Dream Team information below or contact us at nighttoshine@epicchurchbuffalo.com

Honored Guests

Join us for a prom night that you will never forget! Walk the red carpet, enjoy the royal treatment and dance the night away. We have two options for our honored Guests to be a part of – both an In-Person Event & a Virtual Event (with a Shine-Thru Option).

Honored Guests are individuals with Special Needs that are 14 years and older.

WE HAVE FILLED UP TO CAPACITY FOR NIGHT TO SHINE 2025 – PLEASE FILL OUT THE WAITING LIST FORM IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE CONTACTED IF SPOTS OPEN UP. 

In-Person Night to Shine

Every guest of Night to Shine enters this complimentary event on a red carpet complete with a warm welcome from a friendly crowd and paparazzi. Once inside, guests receive the royal treatment, including hair and makeup stations, shoe shining areas, limousine rides, corsages and boutonnieres, a catered dinner, karaoke, prom favors, a dance floor… all leading up to the moment when each guest is crowned king or queen of the prom.

Virtual Night to Shine

For our Guests who cannot be a part of the in-person celebration (or if space runs out), they will receive a special link to participate in the virtual event hosted by the Tim Tebow Foundation.

Dream Team

Be a part of a life-changing evening and make a difference by serving our special needs community and family!  There are so many ways for you to serve and we would love for you to be a part of the Night to Shine Dream Team.

We are looking for over 250 volunteers to be a part of this night – and while Epic Church is hosting this event, anyone can volunteer (even if you’re not a part of Epic Church).  All Team Members will be background checked by Epic Church before joining the team.

Our Night to Shine Dream Team Members should be 16 years and older.
