Hi Caroline,
October is a great time of year to visit Walt Disney World! The weather tends to be lovely, and there are so many special activities going on at Walt Disney World. My family and I first attended
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party last year, and we absolutely loved it. From dressing up and trick or treating around Magic Kingdom Park, to seeing the amazing parade and fireworks, it's a great time.
Although I have no specific information on when dates for the 2013 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party will be released, we can use last year as a guide. In 2012 the dates for Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party were released in early May, so they should be coming soon! I recommend checking the
Disney Parks Blog regularly for this information, as this is the kind of information that often gets released on the Disney Parks Blog.
Have a great time planning your parties and dining for your October trip, Caroline. Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.
