    So, are you ready for some TIGGER-ific news?! I am very happy to inform you that you can now purchase Disney Theme Park Tickets for August 2026! WOO HOO! All you have to do is follow these very simple steps to order your tickets:

    1. Go to the Disney World website and hover over "Tickets & Parks."
    2. Click "Buy Theme Park Tickets."
    3. Scroll down, click "Theme Park Ticket" under "Prices and Products for All Guests," and click the blue "Continue" button.
    4. Choose how many days you want to visit the Disney Theme Parks.

    You are planning your visit at a great time of the year because Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party started in early August last year! This is when Mickey and his pals transform Magic Kingdom into a festive, family-friendly Halloween celebration with unique character meet-and-greets, trick-or-treating, and an exclusive nighttime parade and fireworks show. Oh, I am wishing upon a star that Mickey is planning on starting this event at that time! I promise you will have the most SPOOK-tacular time!
