MNSSHP meet & greets

[alktdknckmom]

Are all the regular characters available for MNSSHP meet & greets in addition to the special characters? I'm wondering if Elsa and Anna will be around for meet & greets, trick-or-treating, etc.
Are FP+ available for Elsa and Anna during this time, or between 4 and 7 PM just after admission through the start of the party?

Thx!

When I went to the Halloween Party at Disneyland a few years ago there were ALL the characters around the remaining open areas of the park... Obviously back then there was no Anna and Elsa but Every single other one was so IM assuming you they will be now they are out..

Also Im unsure if you can use fast pass during the party hours..

We did get ALOT of candy though...

Like a Enviro Shopping bag full to the brim.. Ended up giving it to the hotel.

Are the Halloween tickets on sale yet?

When do they go on sale? Does anyone know if they are usually on between the 10th and 22nd September? Or is that too early?

Disney doesn't announce specific characters appearing at parties until just a few days before, if not day-of. No one knows if A&E will appear at the parties, but my guess would be they will--in particular at MVMCP.

No characters do trick-or-treating.

We went this past Halloween and there were no FP+ reservations during the MNSSHP. Anna and Elsa are new this year so hard to say what Disney may plan until the parties get closer.

Most of the characters available during the day can be found during the party (and then some) but almost all will be in costume. If you want a picture with a "normal" character, without costume, I recommend doing it during the normal operating hours. The lines for the standard character M&G's are much longer during a MNSSHP night.

Has there been any talk as to whether Jack Skellington and Sally will be back this year? They are my DS (6) main focus for the party!!!!

Jack would be my main reason to attend the party. (My teenagers main reason is the headless horseman). I don't see myself spending over $300 if jack isn't there, though. I've got over $2000 in ink (on my leg) of jack. I'd (not so) happily take my vacation to Disney in Cali to see jack if that is the only way I can meet him.

We're going no matter what but it would be a big disappointment! The seeds of this trip were planted in my mind when my DS saw pics of Jack and Sally at last year's party and just HAD to meet them! Let's hope together!

I wouldn't be surprised if they're out for MVMCP, but for halloween I doubt it.

They'd also have to move them somewhere aside from Fairytale Hall. (IMO) They have the princesses with their princes in there, that would not only kick Snow out of the hall for the evening, but also EVERYONE would be asking "Where's Kristoff?" kinda thing.

I do suppose Snow could go back to greeting with the drawves, but it would still have the prince problem….

You could ideally still book a fast pass between for as close to 4pm as possible to try and see them?

Go early. We arrived around 4:30 or so and got in line. Took something to sit on because we knew we wouldn't be moving until at least 7. They came out shortly after 7. I think in total we were in line 2.5-3 hours. But at least we didn't waste much party time. They always had a long line during the night (both nights we went) and even when we left at closing the line was so long (and shut off) I know they were going way past party time to finish them up.

Thank you for the heads up! I was planning to get in line at 5:30 but perhaps I will go earlier. Is it the kind of situation where I can wait in line while DH takes the kids for a walk and comes back before 7?
