It will probably be July when the tickets for the general public (non-AP holders, non-DVC members and non-Disney Visa card holders) go on sale, unless Disney decides to surprise us and make them available earlier.

Thank you for the information Paula. At least now the AP holders can get the tickets early.

So how does the Disney Visa people go about getting them now?? I don't currently have an AP so can't do it thru there.........

 

[funatdisney]

Last year DVC and Disney Visa holders could buy their tickets by calling the ticketing line. The number to call on the AP site is (714) 781-4400. I would try that phone number and see if you are able to purchase your tickets.

You either call the same number that AP people can call to order tickets over the phone, or there is a main ticket phone number to call and you can give your Disney Visa and get a discount on the Halloween party tickets. Hmmm, which number is it? We had the phone # posted in last year's Halloween thread (Part 1). I can try to dig it up for you if no one has it handy now.

ETA - Cool! I see Liza gave the number so it saves me the trouble of looking it up!

Do you still have last year's party dates and prices listed in your party post of this thread? I would imagine that the photo and treat locations will be the same or similar, but I hadn't looked to see if you changed the dates and prices yet.

Thanx Ladies!!! Now have to wait until I have some money in the bank....lol

 

[funatdisney]

Sherry, I was going to do that this weekend, but time got away from me. I will do it tonight. I will erase last years info and fill in current info tonight.

BTW, now that tickets are being sold, I will start the list of party dates and costumes. So if have bought your tickets and would like to be listed on the Mickey Halloween Party list, you can go to the 2011 Mickey Halloween Party Dates and costumes thread and I will add your info to the list.

That makes two of us, Laurie! Having money handy to throw at various situations surely makes life easier, doesn't it? It's been a long, long, long time since the days when I could just say, "Oooh, look! I want to do [that]!" (whatever that was), and then just buy tickets or book a hotel or make plans immediately, on the spot. Now it's all a matter of how much $$$ will come in at which time, and will it be in enough time to do X, Y and Z!!

Liza - Cool! I think it's only the dates and prices that will have to change. I haven't looked at your post in a while, but I'm sure mostly everything else can stay. I was going to refer azdoughboy to your Party Info post in this thread a little while ago, but then I realized I didn't know if it had been changed yet so I figured I'd better wait.

That@^*#$&$^#&@^$!!!website created havoc with my MC and in the end after 40 mins of talking with my credit card company and calling Disney direct, I never did get my tickets for the Sept 30 MHP. I was told that they are having major problems with CC's on their website and to try again tomorrow. Told by credit card company that all the problems with the tickets were on their end, as I was entering everything correctly in their website. GRR!, will try again tomorrow and worse case is that I phone Disney direct and spend the extra $25USD to have them mailed to me. Talk about a long and drawn out process just to get some tickets.

 

[DizNee Luver]

$25 to ship them........do they send them by limo & bring them to you with roses & champagne????? That's crazy!!!! Of course I'm gonna want them in my hands.......but that's a racket!!!

I called this number (714) 781-4400 this morning. Told them Im a DVC member, gave them my number and purchased the tickets with no problems. I did pay the cheapest price for shipping $5.00 should get them in 5-10 days.

 

[BELLEDOZER]

I'm Canadian EH! And there's nothing DL loves more than to fleece us Canadians any chance they get. I personally would rather go the E-ticket route, as I find it an easy way to buy tickets, but I'm having so many problems with their website that I'm willing to take the 25$ hit if it means that I get tickets for the date I want. Have been told to try one more time tomorrow, and if it fails to give them a call, buy them direct and take the 25$ ouch for shipping them direct. Have let my CC company know what I intend to do so that they don't lock my account again. And they are onside with what I'm planning on doing.

It's the Great Pumpkin!

 

[BELLEDOZER]

Pumpkins, pumpkins every where...

 

[bbangel]

Are there dates that sell out that people are so keen to get their tickets early? I'm hoping to do a Halloween trip but have not firm dates in mind yet. Just wondering if I should up my planning.

 

[BELLEDOZER]

Scary pumpkins here and there...

I don't think the chances of sell outs are as high now, since the party has moved into Disneyland. When it was held in DCA there were fewer tickets sold. Also, the prices were lower then. Often times the first night of the party would sell out first, and Halloween night's party would sell out eventually. Maybe the Friday parties had more chances of selling out than other nights.

But there are more tickets sold for the DL party now than what was sold for DCA, if I am not mistaken - and the prices are higher. So my personal feeling - and I could be totally wrong - is that the chances of selling out are less likely.

If there are going to be any really popular dates that sell out, I would guess that the first night and Halloween night would be the most likely. Monday and Tuesday nights are probably the least likely to sell out.

If you have an AP, such as myself, have your dates written in stone, and the tickets open up to AP holders, then I'd say yes, but it's not a do or die situation. You can purchase tickets up to the end of August without problems, but no later, as they do tend to sell out quickly, in Sept. Especially for the more popular MHP parties closer to the end of Oct. The tickets for the general public for the MHP go on sale around July 14th, so there's going to be enough tickets for all of us if you get them before the end of Aug. Despite the price increase, it's alot of fun to go to, and the fireworks are worth it alone just to see them. I went last year and had a blast.
