We attended our first Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party on September 20th and had a great time. In case you don’t know, the Halloween Party is a hard ticket event on select nights from September to the first of November. The Magic Kingdom was beautifully decorated and took on a spooky feeling but you know, not too scary.
The biggest question I have gotten about the party is if I thought it was worth the money. I would have to say yes. The Boo to You Parade is now one of my favorites and I loved HalloWishes. It was fun getting the chance to see characters that aren’t normally out in the parks like the Seven Dwarfs and Flynn Ryder. It was also fun to dress up. My husband and I went as Phineas and Isabella. I was nervous about it at first but we weren’t the only adults dressed up and even other couples like us that were there without children. If you have the chance to attend Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party I highly recommend going. If you do attend, here are a few tips.If you are picking up your tickets at will call, which we did so we didn’t pay shipping and handling, you can pick up your tickets at the Ticket and Transportation Ticket booths. This saved us some time since they ticket booths there were not crowded at all. Just make sure you have your confirmation with you. If you are spending the entire day at the Magic Kingdom, there were Cast Members in different areas of the park who could scan your confirmation and give you your wrist band so you don’t have to leave and come back in.
When it comes to meeting characters you need to have a plan. Lines can be long so you need to decided which characters are the most important to you and plan accordingly. The Seven Dwarfs meet and greet seemed to be the most popular followed by Jack Sparrow and the Disney Princesses and Princes. We got in line to see the Seven Dwarfs at 6:00 PM. By the time they came out at 7:00 PM, it was already over an hour wait to meet them. While we did wait an hour, we didn’t waste any valuable party time and were on our way to see other things at 7:05 PM.
Don’t miss the Boo to You Parade or HalloWishes. The night we went neither of the parades were very crowded but the second parade is the way to go. Also keep in mind that the parade starts in Frontierland so if you are on Main Street, the parade won’t get to you for 10 to 15 minutes. And make sure you are paying attention when they announce the Headless Horseman. We thought we would have a couple of minutes after the announcement but he was there and gone in the blink of an eye.Don’t forget about the candy! If you can, trick or treat later in the evening. The Cast Members started handing out more candy per person as the evening went on. And don’t forget that adults can trick or treat too.
