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

Question about FP now that I'm thinking about it more...
We're staying off site and won't have any park tickets, just the party tickets so can I even book fastpass? Will I be in the 30 day window? I'm sure 7 dwarfs will be impossible to get anyway.

You will be able to book FPs at 30 days out.

Okay thanks! I just wasn't sure if the party tickets alone were "enough" to book. I guess I'll try my luck in a few months and see what I can get.

Yep! As PPs stated, and as outlined in the first post of the thread, you'll want to book your FPs for the following time windows: 3:30-4:30, 4:30-5:30, and 5:30-6:30.

We have started discussing our costume options!!! I think my wife and I are going to Disneybound as Belle (wife) and "Prince Adam" (me).

Costumes for my siblings are a little bit trickier because the party is going to be a surprise that we aren't going to tell them about until we are there - maybe not even until the day of. I am thinking we will get them each shirts that I can pack in my bag and give them to wear that day.

I know my sister (15) will want to do Ariel. For my brothers (14 & 11) I am thinking superhero shirts would be easy enough and if we choose ones from the Marvel universe it should be "Disney" enough. I just have to figure out which superheroes they like.....

I told my mom she has to get a Snow White shirt and we will get my step-dad a Happy tshirt...

I'm not being nice. Anyway... My wife and I already have our clothes picked out, and the superhero shirts will be easy enough to find but does anyone have a good idea/suggestion for an Ariel shirt for my sister? I don't mean a shirt with Ariel on it but a shirt that might make her look similar to Ariel. She is my little sister so hopefully nothing too provocative.....

Green legging or shorts, purple shirt and some Ariel ears or red bow for her hair! There are some super cute ears on etsy or you could make some if your crafty!!

I agree. We're going Halloween night so those tickets are seriously hurting my wallet. Huge letdown if all three of these rides will be down.

Same here!!

The more I think about those 3 rides not operating during the party the more upset it makes me. I realize that's not the whole point of the party but still...

I'm hoping it's a mistake. IT is having issues. One of us needs to call to make sure. If it's true I won't be happy either!!!

Are we the only ones that don't ride during parties? We can ride anytime, would rather do the things we can't the next day.

 

[brnrss34]

I guess it would upset me because I'm used to it. Also because of shorter waits times more chances to ride them? I still love the rest of the Halloween stuff. Why take away more things when some people are used to them, and make things cost more?? We will still have a great time either way.

Splash is listed as being in refurb from 8/28/2017- 11/16/2/017 but the other two are not listed anywhere I can find. I am choosing to consider their absence as an error of omission. Those are two of the most popular rides and my personal favorites to ride after dark and they have always been open during parties.

Agreed.

Oh no! I hope big thunder isn't closed this year.

Me too!! It was closed on our August trip last year! I will be so sad!

I've never ridden Big Thunder or Dwarfs

You mean 3:30 to 6:30? In 2016 any FP that was scheduled past 6:30pm were cancelled, I believe some pp received emails from Disney stating this. It's also located on Post #1

I read about that too. It's suggested to get FP from 3:30 to 6:30. But you can't ride until you are let into the park at 4, right? Do they let party goers in early?

I feel the same....I'm trying hard not to focus on that...trying to keep it positive...trying

It's the only day DD and I have to do rides. All other days will be with DH and DS. My son is special needs and will not do most of the rides. MNSSHP is going to be mom and daughter time and we wanted to take advantage of the rides.

Your first FP is 3:30-4:30, 4:30-5:30 and 5:30-6:30. There is plenty of time to get to the first one. Also last year guests were let in at 3:45.
