"Official" 2017 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Boo to You!

[MikeRx]

We guessed correctly and have settled on October 12th for our party. We are a family of 4 (3 adults 1 child) and are happy to be returning to WDW. We were in DLR for a Halloween party last year and WDW in 2015. Just 4 more days until our ADRs open. We are on AZ time so I will be waking up at 4am Monday morning to snag our favorites.

See you in October, but first Easter weekend in Disneyland!
Mike

Fourth time to Mnsshp now to decided on which date Sept.24, 26, or 29th.

*dance* The 26/09 party works out perfectly for our dates! It means we can attend a party whilst we stay at BLT which is perfect, we can just walk to and from MK!

Sept. 1st for me!

We've been twice and we're not going this year. We're really not... We're NOT! I'm just googling costumes in case.

So now that dates are out, it looks like we can do Oct 10, 12 or 15. So now my question is, what are the chances of them selling out for those dates? When we did the Christmas Party a few years ago, it was the middle of Nov and we knew the parks would be pretty empty. We didn't want to risk rain, so we waited and bought our tickets the day of the event. Can we do that again this year? Or would it be better to go ahead and pick our date and risk the weather? With it being so close to Halloween and during Fall Break season, I'm a little more worried about them selling out.

I'm so excited! We are going Aug 27 to Sep 3 and we can go to the party!! My son will be very excited (candy lol). Now to figure out light weight costumes. And decide if we want to go on the 29th or 2nd (I think that's right). Halloween comes early!

 

[DVC_Becky]

Any info on DVC discounts being offered and, if so, what dates?!

we're going that 10th & 12th, so that's 2 tix sold for those dates!!

Wonder what they will price Nov 1st at?

I'm also curious how this will be priced in comparison to other dates.

 

[lovingeire]

To answer my own question a bit from the first page, it looks like in 2015 when there was a party on the 1st they priced out with the rest of the October dates, but not the 30th or 31st.

Dates: Oct. 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 13, 15, 16, 18, 20, 22, 23, 25, 27, 29, Nov. 1

Advance Purchase Price (adults/children): $74/$69
Same Day Purchase Price (adults/children): $79/$74

Created an account just to come here and talk about how excited I am! The wife and I will be attending our first MNSSHP during our trip in October. We're seasoned park goers, but this will be the first hard-ticket event we've attended. Can't wait to see the costumes everyone puts together!

Hello Disney Sages,
Technical question for you. If I have the party ticket loading onto my magic band will it use up one of my park admission days? We are going for 11 days and only have a 10 days pass but I wanted to use the party tickets as an extra day but I dont want to accidentally use up a park admission day getting into the party.

 

[magickingdomprincess]

So now that the dates are out, how about when will the prices/discounts be announced and when will the tickets go on sale? Hoping for DVC discounts in Sept! Deciding between 9/24 and 9/26.

 

[Hardline]

I'm confused about the costume rules for adults. The first bullet point under 'inappropriate attire' states that costumes may not be worn by guests 14 years of age or older but later on down the page it states that all guests may dress as their favorite character (and continues to give costume guidelines). ??? Am I missing something or is that a direct contradiction? I've been known to have reading comprehension issues! I hope the first 'rule' is a typo - I've been planning our costumes for weeks!!

Edit: Yep, reading comprehension issues. Now I get it, the rule is for non party days. Duh.

Yay for the August parties!!!!

 

[oblori]

the 29th or 1st....those are our dates too! LOL

Mine too! And I can't decide which one to do...of course.

 

[ZackSamMom]

This will be my family's first time visiting during Halloween, so excited!

We will be there from Oct 21-28. I'm debating between Tues the 24th or Thurs the 26th. Does anyone recommend one over the other? or is there really not much difference, crowd wise and such? Thank you!

I've done parties on the 13, 14, 16 and 17 that were all sellouts. However, most sold out only a week or two in advance (one was day of). So you will likely be able to see a 15 day forecast before buying....but in Florida the weather can change by the minute, so not sure I'd base my decision on that.
