This is also how I would describe the main difference between the two types of events. We go on some rides while at
MNSSHP, but we really spend a lot of our time doing party-specific things. If you are looking for an opportunity to go on rides with lower wait times than a normal day, while getting to enjoy the special Halloween atmosphere and "free" treats, then going to the Boo Bash may be a fun event for you. We would miss the parades, special fireworks, and shows and would not be able to eat our money's worth of goodies, so we won't be going during our Oct trip. Hope you have a great time if you decide to go!
