Do Mickeys Halloween Tickets sellout before the general public can buy them.

I’m worried about October 17th specifically.

Edit: spelling and had date wrong.

No. Only opening night or Halloween might.

I've never done the parties, but I am assuming that they are non-refundable?

yes, non-refundable
not sure if they are non-transferable too?? can't remember from last year

Thanks! I posted on the big MHP thread with that exact question about transferring, so will see what the experts say!!

It's highly unlikely that tickets will sell out before the sale to the general public starts. Last year, the tickets were released to the general public on July 28, 2016 and the first sell out didn't occur until August 18. You can see when tickets sold out last year in the 2016 Calendar of Events thread. Tickets are also non-transferable, non-refundable, and not for resale.

I just checked the AP site and nothing is listed as being sold out.

I am waiting impatiently as well!

Is the first night of the party crowded? We will be there on the Wed and Fri of the first two parties. I was thinking the Wed (1st party) would be less crowded than a Friday. And I naively thought maybe the first party would still be less crowded than Oct parties.

Doh. Just Kidding.

You can give tickets as a gift and buy them for other people, but you cannot transfer the ticket to someone. For example, some people have tried to use one ticket to get multiple people into a party. One person goes through the turnstile, somehow hands off the ticket to the next person who then goes through, etc. Giving a gift to one person for that one person alone to use is fine. Transferring a ticket so that two or more people try to enter on that same ticket is a no go.

I'm sorry, but once a ticket is used to pass through the turnstile, isn't it scanned and marked redeemed in the system, and the ticket holder gets a wristband? For paper tickets or printouts, I recall the CMs will even collect them from you. So it's not possible to hand a used ticket (or forward a used eTicket) to someone else to use because when they try to enter with that ticket, it will scan as invalid. However, I have been approached by non-ticket holders in- and outside the park asking if they could have my wristband if I was leaving. Obviously, no.

I was just giving an example to the pp of the difference between giving a ticket and transferring a ticket. As you've experienced, apparently there are enough people who are determined to be dishonest so Disney still has to put the fine print on the tickets. Disney has had to get stricter over the years with how they manage the MHP tickets (or any entry media, for that matter). I remember not that long ago when the party wristbands were paper and unprinted (like the kind you can buy at any party store). People could easily slip them off and hand them over to someone else to gain entry. Or buy a bunch and find out which color to wear on the right night. Tne next year, the wristbands were the locking plastic kind with printing on them. Disney does eventually catch on...
