I would be shocked if they sell out the first day, much less week, even as far out as a month, they go on sale. If that's your worry, enjoy your sleep and just log on when you wake up. :)
It's funny to me because the date I want is the 26th or the 29th of September! And my mind is going "You know, everyone is going to pick the September dates because everyone will think that no one is going to be there!" Totally dumb I realize and unrealistic.

Disney anxiety, my friend. I, too, have this issue. lol
 
2015 Party Tix went on sale in April. From what Im reading that might have been early that year. This year Im going Sept 29, Oct 1. Going solo and super excited.
IIRC, dates were also announced early that year (end of February). This is definitely not the norm.

For all of you who are stalking the special events page daily, please quit wasting your energy! Not only will tickets NOT sell out within minutes, but every blog and Disney news site will be all over the announcements once they do go on sale. I promise you won't miss it! And while Disney has not been known for consistency as of late, historically pricing and an on-sale date have been announced prior to tickets actually going on sale. So it's unlikely we will wake up one morning and they'll be surprisingly loaded. :)

Hopefully we follow last year's trend - this was the day prices were announced and also went up for sale, and the first party date was a week later, so Disney is running behind schedule! lol

Im looking at 9-24 as my main got it all planned party day and 9-26 as my second go with the flow party! Lol the 9-24 one is the one I'm concerned about selling out closer to time!! See you there!! :rainbow:
 
Am i the only one not worried? lol

Im not worried about tickets selling out and not getting them, more worried about the park being packed. LOL. if the first party has a lower crowd, we may just do the parades and shows on that one and avoid the parades/shows on the 2nd one.
 
Yes, I meant for the dessert party. I still am not sure that I want to do it or not, but was curious about where the availability for that would be located. Thank you so much!

When tickets went on sale last year (same day prices were released), tickets were available @ midnight EST. The Dessert Party became available at the same time last year. I purchased our tickets and Dessert Party around 11:05pm CST on night prices released. I was within the 180D for the Dessert Party in October. I did not feel the need or pressure to buy tickets in fear of sell out that early, but I knew Halloween night would sale out eventually, so that was one thing to mark off my list as PAID IN FULL! Dessert Party for certain nights did go quick on some nights. A friend was able to join us, took almost a month to add to reservation.
 
9/24 is my date as well. Why are people worried about it being a sell out??
I can only speak for myself in that I've never done this before and have repeatedly seen comments (not here) like "hurry! will sure to be sold out!" and even comments from people who said they went to get tickets but they were sold out. No time frame, however. Fear often comes from the unknown!

That's great information! Thanks for sharing.

I am having a horrible time trying to decide if on my first visit to NSSHP if the dessert party is worth it on such a busy night (actual Halloween) to get a decent parade viewing spot. Any input on that?

I've never booked MNSSHP before either, but I think the sell outs are days like Halloween night, there are also parties where CMs get discounted tickets and I'm sure those sell out too, but not on day 1 of when they get released. :)

The dessert party and view i think is best for fireworks. there's such a crowd of people around Main Street and kids sitting on shoulders, I've seen a post that says you can only really see the top of the floats and the view isn't great. This looks to be a very old thread but may be useful. https://www.disboards.com/threads/dessert-party-during-mnsshp.2290616/
