Hi there, Jenny, and welcome to planDisney!
Thanks for submitting your question to us and congratulations on getting tickets for
Oogie Boogie Bash! There's a good reason that this party sells out consistently every year. I'm sorry to hear that one of your family members won't be able to join you that night.
You are correct that, as per the
eTicket Terms and Conditions, this Special Event ticket is non-refundable and cannot be sold to another individual. Disney is very strict with this policy and they do monitor for resold tickets. However, Special Event tickets may be gifted to someone as long as no money changes hands, so your ticket shouldn't go to waste. Just call the
Tickets phone line to speak to a Cast Member who will assist you with transferring that ticket to a new recipient.
Do you have a game plan for your Oogie Boogie Bash night? If you can start the day already in the Park, there are areas where you can check in for the Event within the Park and that'll save you time. Since most Guests will begin at the front of the Park and make their way to the back slowly, I like to recommend starting at the back (in
Pixar Pier, which means that you'll be seeing Sid first. Yikes!) and working my way towards the front. And don't miss
Villains Grove!
Jenny, I hope this response was helpful for you. Please write back to us if you need anything further. You're always welcome at planDisney and we'd love to hear from you again!
Wishing You a Great, Big, Beautiful Tomorrow!
