"Official" 2019 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Frightfully Festive Celebration

[Ashmishgab]

But we dont want to use one of our park hopper tickets to get in. So dont we have to wait until the lines open at 4? We currently have 8 day park hoppers in November; and a 4 day base tickets in December; for each of us.

Doesn’t AP stand for “Annual Pass”? And if that’s the case, you WOULD be able to go in anytime right?

If you have an AP, you can go in at any time. If you have a Disney Park ticket you can go in at any time. If you have a Disney Park ticket with park hopper, you can go to another park and then go to MK at any time. If you ONLY have a MNSSHP ticket, you can only get into the park at 4pm.

 

[Ashmishgab]

We have party tickets -- question was if we convert our 8 day park hoppers to annual passes, can we get in at 2 or still have to wait til 4:00? Or am I missing something?

I didn’t see where you asked the question about converting your park hoppers to AP, but if that’s what you choose to do then you wouldn’t be using a park hopper to get into MK for the party earlier in the day. You would be using your AP right? Or am I missing something?

And I guess not even technically using it to get into the party earlier, you would just be going to the park with your AP and then be able to stay after 7 because you have party tickets.

OMG thank you all - I had an incredibly dense moment and wasn't thinking that the AP is a pretty much free entry for the next 365 days. *duh* thank you all and again sorry for the dense moment.

It’s completely understandable. The way we have to plan for these Disney trips is exhausting. Need a vacation just from planning our vacations! I love it though, totally worth it!

So I hate being one of those Debbie Downer posters! Buuuuut last year we went to MNSSHP and were actually really disappointed with how crowded it was. We had gone in 2014, and it was so so awesome. 2018 though did not seem worth the money to us. I mean, we made the most of it and had a fun night, but I swore not to go again this year. Buuuuuuut now I’m looking at some of the new offerings, and we have off from work for a long weekend at the end of September, and now I’m debating on going.
For anyone who was in the same boat as me (not super pleased with 2018’s party), are you going to go again this year? Are the new offerings tempting you? Are there any resources that show party crowd predictions for this year? We would have to go 9/29.

Would anyone who has purchased the Cruella party add-on for one of the first parties be willing to start a review thread for it? I would love to be able to see everyone who attends experiences in one post dedicated to it!

I would really like to hear about the Cruella thing and the issue of the new fireworks during the party and if Casey's grassy area was open to the public I still haven't bit the bullet to add on the dessert party but I really would like to see the castle projections. Dh really wants to see the Headless Horseman. Last year our party rained off and on and the HH didn't ride due to wet pavement.

I am looking forward to my September 17 and September 20 party!!!! Plus it is my birthday

Happy Birthday! The party I am looking at would be September 20. I could technically do the 17th too but the Friday works better with my plans because I want to hit SWGE at 6am on Wednesday. Do you have any idea on crowds for those parties? I’m guessing if you chose 2 parties you may have some experience with them.

Well, I went to the first MNSSHP last year, and was so disappointed I emailed Disney. Vowed to never go to a first party again, maybe done with the parties...
Flash-forward... I planned a trip for Nov, taking DS7 to MVMCP, (he has never done) but then AP previews for SWGE were announced, and we are new AP holders since March. So I grabbed us 2 spots for previews, Monday 8/19... day before MNSSHP, the SECOND party. Yep, have us going to MNSSHP as well.
I am very excited about the new fireworks, and we LOVE the parade. So I have us doing both dessert parties. Last year, having the dessert party and parade view saved our night. I am willing to pay a little extra to make sure we see our must dos.
Since it's only the 2 of us, not too $$$
Hoping the second party isn't as bad as the first, but atleast this time I am not going in blind...

Going to my first MNSSHP on 9/29! Also going to book Cruella’s and hoping some cool pins are still left by then! I’m going with my bff for a girls weekend. The last time we went to Disney together was in 2000. I’ve been 10+ times since then but she’s only been once. Going to try and pack in as much as we can!

We are heading there on Sep 22, our arrival Day! Does it sound too extreme to get to MK a mere couple of hours after a 4 hr Flight, and just checking in at the hotel?

We went to DAH at HS right after a 14 hour drive! Since it was our first night everyone was full of energy. We had a blast!

We’re going to MNSSHP on our arrival day, but we land in the AM. Make sure you have enough time between landing and party start to allow for unforeseen travel delays.

For us it’s better to go at the beginning of our trip, even if it’s the first day. We have more energy and are more excited.

FWIW we did the Christmas party last year and looooved it. Hoping it’s the same for us this year even though Star Wars will be fully opening the weekend we are going

We arrive at Orlando at 2, and we want to be at MK by 5:30-6, that should be plenty of time, I hope!

So we have one day for Disney during our summer trip to Florida. We were thinking about doing the MNSSHP on August 30th. I thought it offered a nice opportunity because I can grab a few FPs from 4-6. But this is my only day at Disney so I won't have a magic band for the parks (perhaps I can try to dig up last year's bands, but I doubt I'll find them). So that's my question: How could I use these FPs if I don't have a magicband? I fear I know the answer since Disney doesn't advertise the 4-6 window...I can't. Are my fears true?
