Hello Emma and welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
Your parents share a birthday! How fun! Their birthdate, August 16, coincides with the first day of
Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party. This separately ticketed event occurs several times each week between August 16 and November 1, 2019. The party starts officially at 7:00 pm and includes fabulous shows, a spook-tacular parade, and a special Halloween themed fireworks show. If your parents enjoy the ghoulish fun of Halloween, it might be a great way to celebrate their special day. However, due to the party, the
Happily Ever After show will not occur on that date.
If a Halloween themed event is not their style, you may want to consider ending your day at Epcot to enjoy
IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth. This beloved show will be ending later this year, so it is likely your last chance to see it before it is gone.
I hope this helps with your planning. If you have more questions, come on back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. We love to help!
See ya real soon,
Anne
