food IS a theme park
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party just kicked off its EARLIEST season ever, and dates are ALREADY selling out. There are a lot of new things this year: a brand-new dance party. New pirates taking over Adventureland.
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party
A whole new lineup of exclusive snacks and TWO new popcorn buckets everyone’s already talking about. So is this the year you fight for a ticket, or the year you sit it out? Our team was there on opening night to find out.
One of the best parts of the year is officially back in Magic Kingdom, and we couldn’t be more excited. Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is one of our favorite ways to celebrate the holiday with tons of candy, special snacks, fireworks, and one of the coolest parades.
Hello Jack!
While we love the event, the big ticket price (and its increasing cost each year) can make it hard to decide if it’s worth paying for. Is it worth paying for a ticket when you only get a few hours in the park? Let’s find out!
The day is here! Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is back in Magic Kingdom, and we’re ready for some spookiness — and it seems like everyone else is, too.
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party crowds!
This specialty ticketed event is one of the highlights of the fall season here in Disney World, and while the event has a limited number of tickets and capacity, it doesn’t always mean low crowds. Often, wait times for rides are low, but for experiences only available during the party, the crowds are long. We’re here for the opening night of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party in 2026, and we’re taking you along with us. Ready to see how busy it is?
Celebrating Halloween at Disney World makes one of the best holidays even better. From a Mickey head pumpkin to an excessive amount of candy and sweet treats, being at The Most Magical Place on Earth in costume is fantastic.
Halloween at Disney World
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is a specialty ticket event where Magic Kingdom turns into a spooky (well, not-so-spooky) party. There are exclusive souvenirs, snacks, entertainment, and fireworks. It’s seriously so much fun. Every year, they release a special map with all the details for the party, and we’re taking a look inside the 2026 map.
When the crypt doors creak and the tombstones quake, spooks come out for a swinging wake…
Party map and Treat bag!
That song can only mean one thing: it’s time for Halloween! It’s officially Halloween season at Disney World, and that means Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is back. We’re live at the very first party of the year, so grab your candy buckets and costume and let’s get spooky.
POPCORN BUCKET ALERT!
A new popcorn bucket has arrived on the scene!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party has officially started in Magic Kingdom, and while that means tons of special snacks, candy, entertainment, and fireworks, it also means a new popcorn bucket. Two of the popcorn buckets this year are part of the special souvenirs that are only available during the event, but there are also two new additions that you can get all throughout the season.
