Halloween is in full swing at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom
, and during Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, guests get to enjoy a special fireworks and projection show: HalloWishes! And for guests who want to plus-up their HalloWishes experience, there’s the HalloWishes Dessert Party!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party
Now you know I like a dessert party, having enjoyed the Happily Ever After Dessert Party — once for the before fireworks experience and once for the after party. And we’ve been getting a LOT of reader questions about the HalloWishes edition of the Magic Kingdom dessert party.
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party
So while I didn’t attend the HalloWishes Dessert Party this year, I had to grab some pics for you! Luckily the cast members were kind enough to let me take a few shots! If you’re interested in my thoughts on the value of a Dessert Party in Magic Kingdom, you can watch our video on the topic here.
We first previewed the Disney Halloween Cauldron Popcorn Bucket — one of a few specialty popcorn buckets popping up in Disney Parks this Halloween season — in this post full of spooky souvenirs you’ll see in the parks over the next couple of months!

Happy Halloween from the Disney Parks
, where jack-o-lanterns and Halloween-themed treats are popping up everywhere! And believe it or not, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party has already begun!

Halloween goodies tend to be some of the most coveted holiday finds, like the Oogie Boogie Sipper which will be available at the new Oogie Boogie Bash — A Disney Halloween Party this year!
