Although we noticed that ride wait times were fairly low during the party and crowds weren’t overwhelming most of the time, there were still some people-y moments, such as when everyone went to watch the Boo-to-You Parade or when we all gathered for fireworks.

If you’re going to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, exactly how early do you need to arrive in order to maximize your party time and minimize your waiting-in-line time? We’ve got the answer!
