Wende,
Thanks for asking your question to planDisney!
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is such a fun time! Whether you visit in costume, or just go in as yourself to soak in all the festive atmosphere, it is fun for guests of all ages.
Good news! If you purchase a ticket for Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, you do not have to make a
Theme Park Reservation! The ticket gets you access to the park starting at 4 pm without having to make a reservation. This is great, because you can spend a day at another park using a reservation, then head to the
Magic Kingdom Park without even having to buy a park hopper ticket!
BONUS TIPGuests to Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party enjoy the shorter attraction lines that the smaller event crowd affords them during the party. You should take advantage of these shorter lines too, of course. But don't overlook the opportunity to slow down and enjoy the spooky atmosphere and festive fun around you. The party is often one of the only times you can encounter some of Disney's favorite villains.
Mickey's "Boo-to-You" Halloween Parade is also a
Must Do! experience. Of course what would Halloween be without gathering up some sweet souvenirs while
Trick-or-Treating as well?
Write me back if you have any follow-up questions.
Have a Magical (and spooky) Vacation!
Doug
