Halloween time is just around the corner in Disneyland, and that means all sorts of treats, merchandise, and entertainment is coming along with it! But, we have to be honest — we’re the MOST excited for the return of the Oogie Boogie Bash this year!

Disney World is not quite back to normal yet.
Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto

After Disney announced that the After Hours Boo Bash event would replace Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween party, we wondered if a similar change would take place for the holidays and today that was confirmed. So, now the real question is just how this new Disney Very Merriest After Hours event differs when compared to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. Today, we’re breaking that all down for you right here.
