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

[VictoriaAndMatt]

For me, the dessert parties are as much (or more) about saving time than the desserts, so no. I don't think back-to-back would be too much.

I don't think you'll be getting the same desserts either.

Thank you both

Does anyone know if you can meet Oogie Boogie at Not So Scary? I didn't see him on the list of meet-and-greets, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that occasionally he does "surprise" appearances for pictures. Anyone ever have any luck meeting him?

I believe select cast members last year were given a meet and greet with Oogie Boogie (and other characters) before the Halloween parties began. He is in the Boo to You parade but no meet and greet for 2019 has been announced.

I have a 6:05 ADR at Jungle Nav Co on August 23rd. Park closes at 6pm. Is this possible? I don't have MNSSHP tix for that night (but planning to buy them). Seems weird to have an ADR time after park officially closes.

You’re fine. 6-7pm is the transition time for MNSSHP. Obviously you will need to leave right after the ADR (and CMs will be everywhere to ensure you do),

Hey Disney Geniuses! I have a question:
This is our first party (and actually our first trip in nearly a decade!) so i'm figuring out some logistics.
Our plan for the party day is spending the morning in the lazy river at Typhoon Lagoon, then heading to MK for a couple of FPs before the party starts. We have an ADR at Tony's at 5:30 for a quick carb fest pre-party, but now that Cruella's party has been announced I'm a bit concerned that we might be rushed through our dinner so they can prep for the party... does anyone have any experience with this? The friend I'm travelling with has some food allergies so we carefully picked our ADRs and she is excited about Tony's so I don't want to change the ADR unless I absolutely have to!!
Thanks guys!

Cruella’s doesn’t start until 9:30 so you’ll be fine!

I’m planning to go to the Sept 20 party! This will be my family’s first ever party. I got ready to purchase my tickets thru Disney but then decided to check UCT and found they were about $25 cheaper including tax (total). I’ve bought regular tickets from them before, but never party tickets. Is there any good reason not to just purchase from UCT?

I bought my DAH for villains and HS there with no problems. My vote is ALWAYS save money where you can!

Mostly no reason not to. They're cheaper and 95% of cost is refundable unless you load them to your MDE. Only issue I see is possibly if you have an issue with your party before, during, or after I doubt Guest Services will do much for you...but that's just a guess. Case in point I had weather issues a couple of years ago to where alot of things cancelled for the night, pleaded my case with guest services the next day, and they gave me tickets to go on another night of our trip. I doubt I could get lucky with that with UT tickets? With that said, I bought mine this year from them and saved alot.

Are you sure it's 95% refundable if you do not add them to your account or is there a 90 day refund policy? Just curious as this was stated in another post. I believe @GADisneyDad14 hosts this thread.

This is the refund policy info UT lists with the MNSSHP tickets. I've never had to request a refund for any tickets purchased via UT, so I can't speak as to whether this is how it actually works in practice (although my experiences with UT have always been great).

ETA: It's listed in UT's policy, but I wanted to also point out that E-tickets are non-refundable; only mailed tix are eligible for returns/refunds

Just saw an article there is a new DecenDANCE party coming to MNSSHP this year.....

So much cool stuff, not enough party time!

 

[SPAM]

Do we think they will close Cosmic Rays to get this ready? I was hoping to eat there for dinner before party starts.

I'm sure someone who has attended MVMCP might know as they have Club Tinsel dance party there. DescenDANCE Party starts at 7pm so I really don't see a problem. ?

This was one of my concerns! We’ve never been during hurricane season so this was what I was wondering about. I know the party is supposed to be “non refundable” but I also know people have luck getting refunds when it’s been a complete washout. Thanks for the reply though

That's not what I've tracked for several years. Disney has always been very accommodating. I have never seen reports from those who purchase from a third party not getting a refund but UCT is very clear with their 90 day policy.
