Hi there, Regina!
Thanks for stopping by the Moms Panel with your question!
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is my very favorite
Special Event that takes place every year at the Walt Disney World Resort. The Characters are all dressed up for Halloween during the Party and they'll even dance with you at their dance parties, pose for pictures and sign autographs too!
When you arrive at Magic Kingdom Park with your Halloween Party ticket, you'll be given a bracelet, a Party map and a trick-or-treat bag! Look for the trick-or-treat stations on your Party map and fill up your bags!
Mickey's "Boo-To-You" Parade indeed runs twice during each Party. They are both just for watching, and you will not want to miss it! I've found that the 2nd Parade has been less crowded, but it really depends on the evening. I have no doubt that your family will have an absolutely amazing time at the Party!
If you think of any other questions as you're planning the final pieces of your vacation, please don't hesitate to write back in! We're here to help!
Have a Pixie Dusted vacation!
