    Hi! We have dining reservations at 3:50 on October 6. We do have tickets to Halloween Party. Do we need a park ticket too? We are staying at Fort Wilderness. Since it is before the party starts I wanted to make sure.

    Howdy Chris!



    Welcome to planDisney. Our family absolutely loves Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. This Boo-tacular is filled with Halloween-themed characters, parades, Trick-or-Treating, shows, and more. Let’s see if we can scare up an answer to your question so you can continue planning your visit. 

    Alrighty, so Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is held from 7 PM to midnight. You can get a head start on the fun by entering the Magic Kingdom at 4 PM, 3 hours before the event officially begins. Since your dining reservations are before that, I recommend seeing if you can move them to just after so you can enter the park without needing a ticket. You can modify your reservation in the My Disney Experience app or on the Walt Disney World website. If you can’t find a reservation that works, keep checking regularly, since people cancel reservations often. You can also call Walt Disney World Dining to see if they can assist you. I’ve always found that they can make a little magic happen if possible. 

    I don’t know about you, but one of my favorite things to do during the party is to enjoy all of the yummy, specific food, drinks, and treats available only during the party. As a matter of fact, the Disney Parks Blog recently published an article all about this year’s offerings.

    Chris, I hope that you and your family have a magical time at this year’s Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Please stop by anytime with your questions here at planDisney, and we’ll be happy to assist you.

    See ya real soon,
    Robert
