Location: Parkway Plaza | 415 Fletcher Parkway, El Cajon 92020

Dates: Saturday, May 30 & Sunday, May 31

Time: 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM (This is a timed-entry event, and an individual reservation is required for each person entering the store).


Before You Book – Please Read!
To create a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for all guests, this event will operate differently from our traditional dress giveaways:

Each person must have their own reservation!
At our prom dress giveaways, teens may attend with 1 guest.
As this is a special event fundraiser, this does not apply. (Teens, parents, family members, and friends all require an individual reservation to enter).

All persons entering the store must have a waiver on file. For attendees under the age of 18, a parent/legal guardian must sign their minor's waiver. 

Each reservation includes one hour of shopping. Entry is limited to your scheduled time to help maintain a smooth and comfortable experience for everyone. Walk-ins are not guaranteed, so please reserve your appointment in advance.

No lines may form outside the store/block walkways. Please plan to arrive no more than 10 minutes prior to your scheduled time for check-in.

For safety and space, strollers are not permitted inside the store.


Early Access “Fill-A-Bag” Opportunities
Want first access to the dresses? We’re offering limited early entry options. (Advance donation required and one person entry per bag.)

Fill your bag with up to 12 dresses in a Princess Project Bag!

9:30 AM Entry -

These early access options help support our mission while giving you the first opportunity to shop. If you are interested in early entrance at 9 or 9:30 AM, please e-mail SanDiego@princessproject.org! 


We are a 100% volunteer-run nonprofit, and we truly appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to create a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone attending.
