As fall approaches, Magic Kingdom has once again donned its familiar decorations, signaling the start of the Halloween season at Walt Disney World.

Walt Disney World's Holiday Services department braved the last two days of storms from Hurricane Debby to install the majority of the decor overnight.



The park is now adorned with the usual pumpkins, garlands, and scarecrows that have become standard over the years. The installation isn't quite complete, with the Mickey head lampost wreaths still to come.





The arrival of fall decor also marks the imminent start of Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, which kicks off this coming Friday. The event will offer its traditional entertainment lineup, including the "Boo-to-You" parade, Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular Stage show, character meet-and-greets, and trick-or-treating. Guests visiting the park can enjoy the seasonal atmosphere throughout the day, though the special Halloween events are reserved for party ticket holders.

View the full details for the 2024 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, including entertainment showtimes.

Nope we just went into city hall to ask the same thing. Really unhelpful looked at us like we were speaking a different language and said no as the party is cancelled there won't be any merchandise. No real apology then told the refund will be within 7 days.. EDIT: Ignore the above we went into the emporium and they are letting people buy the merch if they show the purchase email

Looks like they only get to sell the park once tomorrow.

I have clients who were supposed to go tomorrow to and they asked if there is a way to get access to exclusive merch that was for the party. Any idea if something will be done to get a chance?

If there was an after hours event every night or every other night that rotated parks. I would consider doing an "after hours only" trip. I prefer evenings in the parks anyway.

$169 for an MK ticket on my night. You’re right it was $10 more for the party ticket. 9 hours with LL, no nighttime entertainment, vs 8 hours with all the extras. It’s a no brainer.

Fortunately for Disney, you aren't alone. ;)

How do you figure it's cheaper than a day ticket? Two Sunday's ago, single day MK tickets were $169/person, and the following two days they were $139 per and $129 per. There were only 3 MNSSHP event dates at $159/person and 3 at $169/person this year, all the rest are $179 and above.

You worked first as a butler and then as a bell hop in a tower hotel that was haunted. We knew. ;)

I just have more money than brains.

Then they aren't too expensive. If people keep paying for them, and they keep selling out year after year, they are NOT too expensive. They might be too expensive for you, but not the objective market.
