How 5 Different Countries Celebrate Prom

German students celebrate the end of secondary school and the passing of their final exams, known as Abitur, with a dance called the Abiball. The Abiball takes place after graduation and, though like in America, students don formalwear and dance the night away, the similarities mostly end there. Don’t expect to see YouTube videos of German promposals: Many students attend Abiball with parents or siblings, and celebrate the night with families, friends, and teachers alike — for part of the evening at least. The dance usually starts with a ceremonial procession of the proud graduates, and sometimes includes speeches, awards, and sketches along with the typical eating, drinking, and dancing. But near the end of the night, family members head home and the students keep the party going, often after relocating to a dance club, where they stay until the wee hours of the morning.
