Still wondering if there will be a pre-party like what was previously in Toon Town. I can’t really think of a place where it could be done in DCA though?

Maybe the backlot? that’s the only place I can think of with enough space

Possibly but that may cut off access to GotG??

Looking at the start date for this thread (Jan. 27th!), I can hardly believe that Halloween Time finally starts tomorrow!

I will be there Saturday! And Sunday morning.

I can't really think of any good spot either. It would cut off access to PhilarMagic and Monster's Inc, but the left side area of Hollywood Blvd might work. Or, maybe they'll do something more like MK and just have a treat trail that's open early (they could use the area behind GRR or something like that). I bet this is one of those things that won't be announced/known until after the first party. I'm also curious whether the Fantasyland/Frontierland Dragon will make it DCA somewhere for the party!

Hmmmmmm I’m not sure what to think about it.... hopefully we get some good reports after the first few parties

I think a treat trail by GRR would be perfect! The could do one back behind where the smoking area used to be

Please report back with lots of details, updates, etc.!
I feel like all of us who have been hanging on in this thread since January should meet at the giant pumpkin for a group photo at some point once Halloween Time officially starts!

 

[pblack]

I will do my best to report back!

My husband and I are taking a trip to San Diego in October and decided to add 4 days to the trip to visit Disneyland (never been).

Went to the Disney website to start planning and the 2 Halloween party days (Oogie Boogie) that we will be there are sold out.....super bummed.

Any chance they sometimes have a few tickets released day of at the parks? I know that’s a long shot but thought I’d ask.

If you're staying at the hotel, they sometimes hold tickets for guests. You'd have to get up early on the day of the party and get down to the line since it's first come, first serve. Otherwise, you may not have much luck with it. With that being said, if that isn't an option, remember that the Disneyland park is getting all dressed up for Halloween as well. While you won't see some of the party specific items going on in DCA, that doesn't mean you aren't going to enjoy the rest of your stay (which I'm sure will be awesome).

 

[Dr.Mickey]

That is disappointing, but not at all a deal breaker. We just finished our first full family 3 day trip in June (no parties anywhere) and it was awesome. Don’t let it get you down!

I've never been to a party at DL, and it is still my favourite Disney park of all time.
