For the first time since 2019, Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party returns to Magic Kingdom in August after being cancelled for the past two years. The Disney themed Halloween event will return for 37 nights on select dates starting on Aug. 12 and will run through October 31.
The announcement for the return of this event came after Disney announced their “Halfway to Halloween” week-long event on their social media account revealing Halloween themed recipes, “shriek peeks” of things to come and even a Hocus Pocus virtual watch party.
Prices for this event will range from $109 to $199 dollars on Halloween night and will start at 7 p.m. and will end at midnight. Guests with tickets to magic kingdom on the day of the event with a ticket to the “Halloween Party” will be able to enter the event at 4 p.m. This is a $20 decrease from last year’s modified “Boo Bash” event that started at $129 dollars a ticket and went for less hours each night.
The dates for the event are listed below:
- August: 12, 16, 19, 23, 26, 30
- September: 2, 5, 9, 11, 13, 16, 18, 20, 23, 25, 27, 29, 30
- October: 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 11, 13, 14, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 25, 27, 28, 30, 31
Discounts: Disney Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club Members will receive a $10 discount per ticket to the event on select nights.
Guests of all Disney owned hotels and resorts will have access to purchasing tickets on May 12. All other guests will be able to purchase their tickets on May 18.
New Additions for this Year’s event will coincide with Disney’s “50th Anniversary” celebration which will include:
- A New 3D Photo Backdrops: where guests in Magic Kingdom will step into a three-dimensional photo effect in front of different backdrops located throughout the park.
- A New Commemorative Print: an exclusive Halloween themed print with the 50th anniversary celebration located on it.
- A New reusable treat bag: a New trick or treat bag for guests of the event that can be filled with candy at the event that has a Halloween and 50th anniversary celebration design on it.
Here are the list of offerings listed for this year’s event per the Walt Disney World website:
