Hi there, Robert!
Thank you for stopping back by planDisney. An autumn vacation at
Walt Disney World Resort is sure to be a (trick-or) treat! By then, the weather will have turned the corner from the hot summer months, and the seasonal decorations that adorn
Magic Kingdom Park this time of year are always boo-tiful. Since EPCOT, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park have not historically displayed Halloween decorations, if your family is hoping for an extra helping of spooky spirit, The
Cabins and
Campsites at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground are definitely worth a stop.
The Cabins and Campsites are known for their elaborate holiday decorations, and Halloween is no exception. You can typically expect to find various holiday themed inflatables and even homages to iconic Disney attractions throughout the Campground. Because the decorations are provided by Guests, they vary each holiday season and are not guaranteed by Walt Disney World Resort, but with multiple contests and parades of golf carts and pets available to Guests of the Resort, the tradition continues to be popular year after year. I did a bit of research and discovered that due to the increasing popularity of the decorations and celebrations in recent years, Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground has restricted access to resort Guests and those with
advance dining reservations on Halloween and the dates surrounding it. While I have never personally experienced it, my planDisney pal
Alison raves about
Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue, the dinner show offered at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground. A Halloween reservation here would provide an excellent (and fun-filled) way to ensure your family is able to enjoy the decorations.
Since your magical vacation will be taking place during October, I hope you will purchase tickets to
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party to celebrate the spooky season. My husband and I loved dressing up in costume and enjoying the special holiday treats and overlays on our favorite Magic Kingdom attractions. Just like
my favorite seasonal popcorn bucket, details for the event are still currently under wraps, but keep an eye on
Disney Parks Blog, especially as the
Halfway to Halloween celebration kicks off, for more details on Walt Disney World's upcoming Halloween celebrations.
I hope this was helpful, Robert. Don't hesitate to
stop back by with any additional questions that may arise before your magical vacation begins. Just like in Haunted Mansion, there's always room for one more.
Cheers to 2024,
Lizzie
