    What event will take place instead of the Oogie Boogie Bash parade? Is it another parade? Or what happens at the event that's being held instead of the parade?

    Greetings, Lilian, and welcome to planDisney! I love that Oogie Boogie Bash is on your radar – it's the perfect way to celebrate the spooky season. We just got more details about the 2026 event. I'm happy to share!

    The Frightfully Fun Parade will not return in 2026, but instead, Guests of Oogie Boogie Bash can look forward to "Madame Leota’s Swinging Wake – A Haunted Mansion Street Party." This all-new experience, hosted by the iconic Madame Leota, will feature music, dancing, and happy haunts that will bring the street to life! And no fear – the Headless Horseman will still make appearances throughout the evening.

    Of course, there will be a lot more spellbinding fun at the after-hours party. Make your way through trick-or-treat trails, meet Disney Characters in Halloween costumes and Disney Villains, explore the mystical Villains Grove, and more. One of my favorite parts of the event is seeing all the clever costumes – remember that you can dress up, just keep the costume guidelines in mind when planning your outfit. 

    Another great perk is that, even though Oogie Boogie Bash starts at 6 p.m., you can enter California Adventure with your event ticket starting at 3 p.m., giving you a few extra hours in the park! I like to use this time to grab an early dinner so that I'm ready for all the fun when the event officially starts.

    Lilian, please let us know if you have any other questions as you plan your Halloween Time visit. We're always happy to help here at planDisney!

    Your pal,
    Kriss
