"Official" 2016 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Trick or Treat Fun

[FeralCatRogue]

Around 4pm kiosks open in certain areas to get them as well as the main gate.
Your kid should be fine with costumes theres kids dressed up all the time, I do not know how they will treat adults with costumes early.

Hi there! We will be hopping to MK around 2:00 the day of our party ticket, Oct. 20. This is our first time to WDW so of course our first MNSSHP too! Super excited!
I have two questions I'm hoping someone can help with . . .

Since we will be entering early on a regular ticket, when and where should we get our party bands? Can we get them early or only after 4:00?

I'm assuming we will not be able to enter in costume at 2:00. Is this correct? Could our girls (DD12, DD9) have costumes on that early? I suppose we could keep the costumes really simple and just put them in our park bag . . . but it would be nice to know either way.

TIA!

Last year we hopped over at about 1pm in costume. 2 adults. We got our party bands and trick or treat bags in front of Buzz Ride at 4pm. Their were cast members there scanning your ticket.

Working some more on our costumes today. If I could get my husbands done then I could start on mine haha! Also thinking about what 3 FP+ to get since my time opens soon. Haunted mansion is a given as we always ride that early so we don't waste party time riding. Not sure about the others, maybe buzz. Nothing too wild with our costumes on.

What about Peter Pan? I can't believe how crazy the wait times are for it, but I do like the new queue.

We are going to Disney, staying at the BC from 8/24 thru 9/3. We are considering going to MNSSHP the night before we leave on 9/2. This is the first night of MNSSHP. It will cost our family almost $400 to go and before I put that kind of money out, I want to make sure it's "worth it". For you experts, do you think it will be crowded that night? Will we be able to get decent seats for the parade. We have 2-13 year olds and a 7 year olds. We will stay til the end. Will it be absolutely crazy to get back to the BC via bus after it's over at midnight. I see that 9/2 is CM's night, don't know if that means it will be more crowded then usual. Any thoughts? We went previously, probably 8 years ago, my 7 year old has never been, he is the one that really wants to go.

Where does the parade start and end?

Great suggestion! That would be a good one. We won't ride any rides after 6pm as we will line up for characters. Don't think we'll do the 5pm lineup for Jack & Sally this year. We've seen them twice now. Going to do some we haven't seen.

Boo to You parade kicks off in Frontierland and ends up on Main Street by the Fire Station.

Headless Horseman rides before the parade starts. Pretty cool!

Hi guys, my husband and I decided to go to the MNSSHP on Sept. 8th. We are going to WDW without the kids this time and so we were wondering if we should dress up?
I have been to MNSSHP with the kids years ago and we all dressed up as pirates to make them happy. But now, I don't want to be the only two adults dressed up, and I am confused on what we could actually wear with all the new restrictions Disney has implemented for adult costumes!?
Any suggestions?

We did Jack and Sally last year and the Dwarves the year before. We might try to meet Jack Sparrow this year.

Trust me, you won't be the only adults dressed up. When you walk into the park everyone gets a treat bag. We've done 50's theme, hippies and pirates. Have fun!!!

I have a quick question about party tickets and Fastpass before 7pm. I'm staying offsite and do not have any other tickets linked in my profile but the 2 party tickets. When I go to check Fastpass, it says tickets cannot be found, but they appear in the My Reservations and Tickets section in my main MDE account. Will this open (Fastpass be available) up at my 30 day window? Is the party ticket date specific and it knows when my Fastpass window opens as opposed to a general admission ticket which you can enter into MDE and see fastpass times any 30 days out? I was curious to play around with Fastpass times before my party date, but doesn't appear to be working. Thanks

Yes, definitely dress up! It's so much fun. It's just my husband and myself and we always dress up.

Great! Now I just got to figure out what to dress up as.
Thanks

Following along. We'll be going to the party 10/10 and 10/13.

Really looking forward. Been to the MVMCP before, but this is our first time going to MNSSHP. Really looking forward to it.

Yeah! So exciting. You'll have a blast. We're going 10/30 & 10/31. Post here how crowd levels are for those days. PP have been wondering about party crowds around Columbus Day & Canadian Thanksgiving.

Just booked tickets for DW and I on 9/2 anniversary getaway. Dinner at BOG. Looking forward to it.

Happy Anniversary! Nothing like spending your anniversary at Disney. We have BoG reservations before MNSSHP too. I LOVE BoG! Especially the grey stuff!!!

Worth it is totally subjective. We love it, and it's worth it to us, but there's only 2 of us so it's not as much money. If it's just the 7 year old that wants to go you could definitely save some money by maybe just him and 1 parent going while everone else relaxes at the resort that night. It'll also make parade seating easier to find. From what I've read the first night was crowded last year, but a lot of that had to do with Disney disorganization (selling tickets plus giving lots of free ones out to press plus cms not actively making nonparty people leave). Also, it was the first night for the new show, so that didn't help. The hub will always be super crowded, but rides are usually low line. Parade veiwing is usually better for the 2nd one, especially in Frontierland. The fireworks are fabulous too, and no need to enter the Hub of death for them, they can be seen everywhere. We love the whole atmosphere, and the meet and greets. We always have a ball! And don't forget your ticket will get you in at 4, and you can make fp+ up to 6:30. We're usually some of the last people to leave the park, helps to avoid long bus lines and just savory the Halloween-iness. Lol.
