Bibbidi Bobbidi BOO, LeAnna!
Thanks for stopping by planDisney with your question - I'm hauntingly happy to help.
It sounds like you have a Walt Disney World Resort vacation coming up this fall! Fall is my favorite time of year to visit Walt Disney World, especially when there are fun ways to celebrate the Halloween season. I was so excited to hear about a brand new Halloween offering for Guests in 2021!
On select nights from August 10 through October 31,
Magic Kingdom Park will be home to a SPOOKtacular late night event, as grim, grinning ghosts come out to play at the
Disney After Hours Boo Bash. From 9pm to midnight (9:30 - 12:30 on select evenings), Guests will enjoy exclusive park time to enjoy popular
attractions with low wait times, Halloween Cavalcades, Character Appearances, and complimentary ice cream treats, popcorn, and drinks. There will be tricks and treats at every turn!
Tickets for this spine-tingling event go on sale June 15, and will be available online or by phone at (407) 939-4240. Guests of select
Disney Resorts Collection hotels qualify for early ticket access, and are able to purchase tickets as early as June 8. As a resort guest, you should have received an email with information about the early purchase opportunity. If not, simply have your reservation confirmation number handy when you call (407) 939-4240 to purchase your tickets. (Early access tickets are available by phone only.) I can let you know from our experience yesterday that call volumes were high and it was tough to get through. The best advice I can give is, don't give up! If you get a busy signal, it doesn't mean the phone lines are down, just that all the Cast Members are busy helping Guests. Keep trying, and hopefully you can connect with a Cast Member that can assist you! (Please be prepared for longer than typical wait times when you call.)
Once you've purchased your tickets, make sure to write down the confirmation the Cast Member will give to you - typically 4 letters, followed by 8 numbers. This will be an important tool to link the tickets to your
My Disney Experience account. It could take a day or two for the tickets to show up once they're linked, but don't panic. Ours didn't show up at first, but then they magically "materialized" late this morning. If you encounter any issues uploading your tickets, I encourage you to reach out to the My Disney Experience Tech Help Team at (407) 939-7765.
I hope this helps, and you're soon able to secure your tickets to attend the Disney After Hours Boo Bash while on your Disney vacation. It's going to be a ghoulishly good time!
Your Ghost Host,
Diane W.
