Not sell out frenzy

I better not be working that day they go on sale or I will be taking multiple breaks to order the tickets!!!!

Why? You can either order online or via phone when they announce and you get home later that evening

 

[KAT4DISNEY]

Is there a frenzy to book this when it comes out like it was with FD??

Definitely not. The first date to sell out generally comes a few months after tickets go on sale and will be Halloween.

I know I can do that but I am super excited and this is the last piece to my puzzle and just anxious to get everything done

I hear ya - I'm just wanting to be done too I'm on the computer most of the day anyway so posting here and checking on WDW is pretty easy and under the radar

But ... don't we need a bag for trick or treat?

WE actually aren't planning on doing any trick or treating . My son specifically asked if we could "not waste pour party time trick or treating and focus instead on party entertainment and rides".

Not sure if you have been before but
When we went two years ago, we had plenty of time to do it all - well, we only did a couple meet/greets. My kids are teens and apparently too old to care about that. But boy did they love to get all that candy! lol We left with 3 overfilled backpacks among the 5 of us.

This is my first WDW party but we have been to the DL party about 6 times I think. We always used to trick or treat-I still have last years trick or treat bags and I pack my lunch in them sometimes lol. We just would rather do other things and buy a bag of candy when we get home. Even though there is "plenty of time" it can still feel like there were things we wished we had given more time to. My son doesnt trick or treat anymore any way so he seemed a bit put off last year when I handed him a treat bag. I had to pass it off as being something we were doing for the "little kids" because we had the cousins with us.

We love the parties we would just rather spend party time doing other things. I also tend to loose too much time staking out the best parade and firework viewing spots. I can really be that "perfect viewing spot" nut case . Last year the DL party got a new parade and I held our spot on the curb on main street for just over an hour-it was perfect though and it was a great place to be positioned to head into the street at the hub to watch Halloween screams-which is one of my favorite fireworks shows, second only to DL forever. I think he is thinking that if he is going to loose an hour to staking our the best parade/show spots he doesnt want to spend any more time doing things he doesn't like doing.

This will be my first Halloween party! Can't wait!

 

[smallworldnh]

I think maybe some of us are still feeling some trickle down anxiety from the FD experience! I won't worry about it so much! Thanks!

 

[tinkerbell1991]

Thank you for that, I'm to add these to my to do list.



Such a great costume.



I love these dresses but I'd need to try them on. I'm different sizes in different places and Hot Topic junior women's sizes still loose me because their conversion to UK does not make sense.

I think I have my second costume "narrowed down" to:-
Rey (Star Wars The Force Awakens)
Princess Leia
Belle and her yellow dress
Rapunzel with brunette hair - my local Disney Store has Pascal.
Woody - I wanted his dress up outfit as a kid so badly.
Or Rocket from Guardians - I just googled the female costume ideas and that looks fun and cute.

I think I will have short hair again for my trip so I may have to get creative with clip in hair extensions for Belle/Star Wars ladies. I can find some really cool dresses on Etsy but its going to cost so much for a simple t-shirt dress. £40 + £18 P&P and the risk of import tax

Me and my partner are dressing up as woody and buzz (he's woody, I'll be the female version of buzz haha).

I bought 2 plain t-shirts from primark for £2 each and some fabric paints. It's worked out £15 for both tops and they actually look quite decent if you want to try and save on costs.

We looked into buying from etsy too but was working out quite expensive so why not get creative

WE actually aren't planning on doing any trick or treating . My son specifically asked if we could "not waste pour party time trick or treating and focus instead on party entertainment and rides".

We went two years ago (adults). We would trick or treat when we were near a station and there wasn't a line. It wasn't a main goal, but we thought it was part of the experience! We got plenty of candy without even trying.

We take a string backpack for each person. We walked in bagless with them folded up in our pockets, then pulled them out when we needed them. They worked well for anything we picked up (candy, etc) and were easy to close up for rides.

 

[FoxC63]

I had to google what that was, I was thinking of the notebooks (Moleskines) and was a bit confused. Looks good, I shall add that to my packing list.

I totally agree with @ErinsMommy and just wanted to add that they come in different weight or thickness and many people never travel without them. I highly recommend them.

Adding to this, you may want to pre-cut them as well as they come in a sheet rather than smaller toe/foot size pieces.

This is such a good idea - Don't have to worry about going through the bag check line, but then have something to put things in as you accumulate stuff (candy and things you never intended to buy) throughout the night. I like it!

Agreed I was trying to cut a sheet once with a tiny pair of travel scissors and it was NOT going well. Also I'd suggest extra bandaids to secure it or bandage tape if one is prone to blisters. Sometimes depending on the location the moleskin can get dislodged from friction/rubbing-one occasion I've had to secure it with extra bandaids to prevent it from moving

 

[FoxC63]

TGIF!

Happy Friday Everyone! and Newbies!

As many have posted it's hard to say which parties will sell out or which are more crowded but when the prices and discounts come out we should have a clear understanding. When purchasing becomes available it is not necessary to purchase any party asap. In the interim there is some great info and links on this thread which may impact your stay I suggest reading through the pages to get updated. Thank goodness it's not at 700+!

Have a Great Weekend!

 

[FoxC63]

@ErinsMommy love the new avatar!

 

[eeyoregon]

I need some clarification. If we ONLY plan on attending the party, do we still need a park ticket + a MNSSHP ticket or if we are only arriving in time for the party, can we get in with JUST a MNSSHP ticket? Thank you in advance for the info. I actually called WDW twice and neither cast member could confirm. I kept getting responses like, "That should be fine" which left me with zero confidence.

 

[CMNJ]

You only need a party ticket if you enter once they are allowing party guests into MK (usually around 4 pm)
