UPDATED August 7, 2026
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is a seasonal Magic Kingdom event requiring a separate ticket for entry. The event is now running on select nights from August 7th through October 31st, 2026.
Once inside, guests enjoy plenty of ghoulish fun and entertainment only available at the Party!
Trick-or-treating in the Magic Kingdom and the party-exclusive Boo-To-You Halloween Parade (which starts with an appearance by the Headless Horseman) are included, along with access to Magic Kingdom attractions and meet-and-greets with Disney characters (including rarely seen characters and some in their Halloween costumes).
The Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular is a Party-exclusive show featuring the Sanderson Sisters from Hocus Pocus along with some of your favorite Disney Villains. And select attractions receive a Halloween overlay with haunting (or not-so-spooky) effects.
The exclusive Halloween fireworks spectacular, Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular, lights up the night just for party guests. It’s hosted by the Pumpkin King, Jack Skellington!
Guests are welcome to wear costumes, too (guidelines for costumes can be found via a link under Additional Information below!).
