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

[cuteandfluffy626]

I am really disappointed there's no BTMRR and 7DMT. Had I known that I probably wouldn't have bought tickets.

It doesn't say anywhere that they are closed during the party, Disney just didn't list them on the website among the opened attractions.

It wouldn't make sense to close these guys (unless for maintenance problems) with how popular they are.

If Disney listed every attraction that was opened, it would take up a lot of space on the page.

Again, I'm pretty sure unless a problem in the rides of occur during the day that they had to work on, they will be opened.

SM on the other hand...

I have seen nothing but positive posts/reviews about the new show on the Rumors Thread. A video is posted there too. A few negative posts were mainly about not wanting it to change & that Wishes had been around forever. OP pointed out that it had only been there for 13 years & that change is sometimes necessary when better -- current Disney material added. Check out the thread for comments and video. I'm excited to see it. I will not watch video, no spoiler alert here. Waiting until I can see it in person!

Personally I miss the ElectroParade. It reminds me of my visits to Disney in my childhood and I would love to see it again. I think a Halloween themed ElectroParade would be to die for.

It seems deliberate to me when you're choosing not to put the most popular ride you have up but including Swiss Family Treehouse and Country Bear Jamboree.

I agree- why would you leave off the most popular rides? Not a glitch, something else. Who knows!!!

 

[DonaldDuck77]

Maybe because they assume you know the big rides are open? And stuff like the treehouse and Country Bear Jamboree haven't been in years past.

But then why include Space Mountain and Pirates? Occam's razor is telling me it's because they're not going to have those attractions open. I hope I'm wrong.

 

[ErinsMommy]

there would be no reason to close 7DMT or BTMRR during the parties - both rides IMO are even better in the dark than daytime.

Maybe for us that have been before, but if I were new to the party and looked at the list of open attractions and didn't see them listed, I would assume they were not open and for some may or may not play into decision to buy tickets.

We won't know until the first party I guess!

Or they update the list, which imo is more likely than leaving people in the dark.

Since those that have called have gotten nothing but non answers and verification of what it already says on the website I think that we really cant say one way or another but perhaps omission is more telling than what is actually being said.

It seems just like when the first rumors of the Splash closure surfaced-many people insisted that it was a bogus rumor because it seemed counter intuitive to close a water ride during the hottest part of the year and they even use prior years data to back up their claims that it wouldnt happen since Splash historically always does its refurb in the winter. I had a bit more inkling that it was, in fact, possible since it was down at the same time last year at DisneyLAND-if its possible there then why not at WDW. Well we all know how that turned out-Splash will be down late summer to mid fall as the rumor said.

In short-Any thing is possible even if it seems like it would be a dumb thing for Disney to do.

The September Star Wars Dessert Party is LIVE!

Oops! here's the WDW link:
https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/dining/hollywood-studios/galactic-dessert-party/

Just saying, this is the second time Disney released something and both times I did not not receive an email notice. I signed up with several, did any one get a notification?

Yay! Booked for our September HS day!! I also did not receive a notification.

IIRC, BTMRR was down for refurb last fall? So maybe a bad cut and paste job? Doesn't explain SDMT though? It's been open during parties since it debuted, though, so can't believe they'd close it this year?

We currently have 4 day park hopper tickets and plan to do one party. The cost to add on an additional day to the park hopper would be $20 a person. I am considering adding the day and using it to enter MK around lunch time on our party day. This would give us ~4 extra hours before the party starts and it might be our only option to eat at Crystal Palace, which is a favorite character meal for us. I didn't want to waste party hours on a table service meal. I feel I keep adding costs to this trip - party tickets, EMM tickets, and maybe this. It would be $60 for the three of us. I think its worth it. The meal would take an hour, so it would be ~3 extra hours. I think we could get a lot of stuff done with that extra time pre-party and then have the party time to enjoy the party activities.

My DD will finally be tall enough to ride 7DMT this trip, and we were planning to ride during our party days since the lines would be shorter. It's unlikely we'll be able to score a FP+ for it on our non-party MK day because we're staying off-site and are restricted to the 30-day FP+ reservation window. Totally bad news!!

 

[Perelandra]

That is disappointing that they would cut two of the top-tier attractions with a third closed for refurb and raise the ticket price. The Space Mountain line will be ridiculous now. That doesn't feel like great service, but I will go and have a great time anyway.

If you rope drop it, it won't be too bad, plus you'll get the extra joy of experiencing the queue.
Woah. that was strange. I was replying to your post about your DD not being able to ride mine train and this post showed up.

The story on the DIS states that it will be closed! Pretty definitive statement too......................

Haha, that is strange! Yeah, I'll need to plan to rope-drop for our MK non-party day. She's so excited to finally ride it that I have to make it happen!

Regarding the Ride closures, I think a lot of the Disney fan sites are reporting this now because of this Disney Parks Mom Panel answer. But I know they are not always correct and I'm not really sure the Moms really have insider information I don't think. I believe this is just re-posting what the WDW site is saying about the party. So, this might not be 100%, or at least I'm hoping so. https://disneyparksmomspanel.disney...mickey-not-scary-halloween-party-boys-339584/
