"Official" 2018 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Spooktacular Celebration!

We have AP’s and will use them to enter Park on the two Halloween Party nights days. We will go to
one of the locations inside the park to get the wristband. We will be staying onsite and will use magic bands for any purchases. Will our magic bands be enough to check in for Party, or should I carry my drivers license with me for identification?

You should ALWAYS carry your identification with you and any medical cards if it applies to you. If you ever become separated and something happens to you EMS workers will know who you are. Also it's wise to carry some cash with you. It has been reported just recently that WDW suffered power outages, if this happens wristbands might not work which did take place at Food & Wine.

All you need are your bands. You do need ID to use your AP card for discounts.
 
You can check to see if they are linked to your MBs by signing into your MyDisneyExperience app and looking there.

So if it shows in my tickets on my MDE and the app, I don't need to exchange the email with the bar code? I'll have the printout of the email with me anyway, but that would be awesome if I didn't have to. (I'll be in the park earlier that day on my AP, so I don't have to worry about them using a ticket.)

Some people advise otherwise for valid reasons, but I just make sure our tickets show properly in MDX, enter the park via an MNSSHP entrance (or scan in the park if I'm already there), and use our Magic Bands. I've never bothered to stop and get a card/ticket. I do have my e-mail saved in a Disney folder in my inbox that would be easy enough to find if I did run into any unexpected trouble (although never have).

So glad to see I’m not the only one with a “Disney” folder :)
 
Which party would you choose?

Monday, 9/3 (Labor Day)
Friday, 9/7
Sunday, 9/9

I was thinking of doing EMM on 9/4 and DHS on 9/9, which means the 9/7 party date would really make the most sense for us. But I'm worried a Friday party will be much more crowded. Thoughts?

Having a good plan is more important than the date you choose. Pick the one that works best with your schedule.
 
Can I get Memory Maker just for the party?

If yes, HOW? I've not been able to figure it out online.

Thank you!

ONE DAY MEMORY MAKER


Disney’s Memory Maker One Day is currently available on the My Disney Experience mobile app and can only be activated with at least one (1) Disney PhotoPass® Service image linked to your My Disney Experience account (subject to change). To locate this one day feature, please open the app on your mobile device and scroll down to My Photos from which you’ll need to select Disney PhotoPass and follow the prompts for the Memory Maker One Day product.

You need to have at least one photo in your PhotoPass account, that's how the system knows to select and limit you to that one specific day. On the MDE app, tap on the three bars at the top left of the screen. Select "PhotoPass" (NOT Memory Maker) and then choose a photo. The next screen will give you three options: 1. Unlimited downloads of Your Vacation Photos for $169.00, 2. Unlimited downloads of Your Photos for This Day for $69.00 and 3. Unlimited downloads of This Photo for $14.95. Choose the second option and make sure the date you want is the one that is listed.

Note, You can wait until your vacation is complete and then take your time deciding which day to purchase but I would certainly look at them to make sure the magic shots are correct! Some have reported missing the Headless Horseman for example. Just call to have this fixed.
