I know this is an old post but I just ran into this problem recently. Also I'm playing on console.

    Suddenly, with no game changes or glitches, prom is not happening in my game now either.  Three kids now, no prom.  I've got a principal.  I've had career day.  Other than the teacher and principal spending all their time downstairs at the pc's instead of teaching or being in their office, which has been an issue since the start of the save and I've had prom before.  Seemed to start the last phase of Cozy Celebration (Quest 3), which also doesn't work properly, but that's a complaint for another thread.

      @Displaced_Salad I might have found one of the problems, Prom happens every Saturday, at 7:00pm, unless the day its announced is a holiday and you select no school option on Holiday, there will not be a prom because it wasn't announced at school, this is the list of things that cancels prom on Saturday:

      1. Holiday on announcement day, because you didn't go to school and had the day off.
      2. Career day because of minium day.
      3. Fire Drill on announcement day.
      4. Anyone aging up before Saturday Prom will be cancelled the following week for graduration cermonies. You can still go to prom if you age up before before Prom but was announced before you aged.
      5. Prom won't appear in the calendar as an event unless you have a date to prom either as romance or friendly date.

      I hope the list helps.

        I’ve just had two households in a row not be able to attend prom. The NPC sim will have an “impressed by proposal” moodlet until the popup to go to prom never happens. We travel but prom doesn’t spawn.

        This has a negative effect on the teens’ relationships.

        (Yes, that’s proof that I have mods.)


        For what it’s worth, we do have the Talent Showcase but I’ve had Get Famous forever and it used to work, so…?

        Because I have mods, I cheated off the negative sentiments with UI Cheats, but our console players can’t cheat without losing their trophies.
