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

[monique5]

Thanks! My choice would be between a more crowded normal park day OR a more crowded MNSSHP then? I thought MNSSHP would have the same amount of crowd!

Only answered in terms of MNSSHP, wasn't sure if your park day was a in general park day or MK. Then wanted to be sure you knew Columbus Day was the next week, 10/10. Some say the crowds on party days in the MK are less crowded during the day, but this isn't always the case. Also, as of now, no parties have sold out and the 1st party is in 8 days, 1st this has happen too (No early sold out parties like Halloween). So who knows this year. Happy planning! Have a great trip.

MNSSHP crowds will be lower than a normal park day, however parades, fireworks, parties, Hub will be "crowded"; rides will have short waits.

Anyone have thoughts on the potential crowd levels for the Sept 8th party? We're going to be going and hoping for low crowds since it should *hopefully* be early enough in the school year that people aren't taking the kiddos out.

It can be hard to estimate. At least it's not the first party, and it's a Thursday in early September so that works in your favor. Sometimes odd dates sell out for no discernible reason.

I know this can be frustrating, but just assume a sell out and then you'll either be pleasantly surprised or you'll have been right.

If you are already in the park and decide you want a MNSSHP ticket for that night, do you have to go outside to the booths or is there a place inside MK you can buy your ticket?

Outside to the regular ticket booth. Not sure if guest services inside would sell you a ticket, I'm guessing they'd direct you outside.

Thank you!

Let's say I already bought my ticket for the party and I am already in MK on my regular ticket. 4 pm rolls around. Do I have to go back outside to get my MNSSHP wristband or are there places inside for that.?

No, there are spots inside. The locations may be included in the first post?

No there are usually two or three places inside the park that start to distribute around 4. Ones usually near potc, one in Tomorrowland. I'd check back here after the first party to know for sure.

That info will most likely be added to the first post.

Thank you! Very, very tempted to go to this party twice during my 3-day visit.

I booked a trip for my 10 year old niece and myself (September 17-25), we will be attending the Tuesday September 20 party. Dressing up as Haunted Mansion Maid and Mansion ghost lady....here's hoping it is a better controlled party than last year

We usually do two parties during our trip because there is so much to do and it's a lot of fun! If you're serious about attending I wouldn't put off purchasing your tickets, at this time no parties have sold out as they have in the past, but you never know when they will.

I will probably be buying my ticket for the 2nd party in the next day or two. I already have one for the first party. This is my favorite thing to do at WDW, and I haven't been since 2011. That one was sold out and even though it was crowded, I still had a fabulous time. My sister waited until we got there to get her ticket and by then it was too late, so I had to go by myself. But I would rather be at a sold-out party than not be at the party at all!

I really hope the tickets prices and other factors mentioned above lead to a decrease in party attendance. I was at one of the after hours events at Magic Kingdom in May and there may have been 100 people in the park and it was the best night ever! Frontier land was so empty there were 4 people on splash mountain and the ride operators just let us ride over and over again....similar on 7D, but we had to get off, then back on to ride.

We can all dream of an evening like this! Here's hoping we all have less crowded parties and walk on rides!

It's in Post #1 under Wristbands INFO as a place holder now. When locations for this year are announced, I will add.
