Disneyland at halloween - aussie travellers

[dyljon]

Hi - we are planning a trip to California in Oct/Nov this year, and are interested in going to the Mickey's Trick or Treat Party at Disneyland. Is it correct that this happens on Tues and Fri nights throughout October? What is the cost of going? Our boys will be 7 and 4 yrs old, is that suitable ages for the Halloween activities?

Oh.... when I saw the title of your thread I thought you were directing it at me (I am kidding)

Can't answer your question sorry, but just had to reply to your post. There is a Halloween thread that will give you lots of info, the thread it here http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2560082

We have an Aussie board too that you should pop over and visit, there are so many Aussies now travelling to Disneyland and Disney World.

Tues and Fri are not the rule, but usually the days. It's possible they could change or add days. Tickets should be onsale in July and we will know the official dates then.

It would be great for your kids.

The prices vary depending on the day and if you prepurchase or not. Expect it to be about $55 each and it should fall within $10 of that. These parties do sell out. Buy them before your leave Oz.

We went this past Oct and on our date (it was a Tuesday the 25th) it was $49. On Fridays it was more expensive as well as some other specific dates - guess it depends on what they think will be a big local day

Your boys are at a great age to go to the party! Most people were dressed up, tons of candy to be had and a great parade. It was pretty cool

Thanks for replies. I've heard a couple of people say that the halloween screams fireworks may be scary for a 4 yr old when everyone screams, is this correct? I would think he could just put his hands over his ears if it's a bit loud

Tickets are non-refundable. If you know an annual passholder (or are one yourself) there is also an AP discount for certain days and you can get it earlier than the general public.

I doubt after a day in the parks doing other things, the fireworks would not be a problem. People don't nessacarily scream during the show.

Go to 4:40 to get an idea.
