Hello there Stephanie, welcome to planDisney! It sounds like you are in for some frightfully good fun in October!
How exciting that you were able to secure
Oogie Boogie Bash tickets! I love the new villain additions to this year's party, especially Yokai from
Big Hero 6 coinciding with the opening of
San Fransokyo Square in
Disney California Adventure Park!
If you already have a
theme park reservation for Disney California Adventure Park the same day as your Oogie Boogie Bash tickets, then you do not need to stand in the long party entrance. You could get there before 3:00 PM, and you'd definitely save some time. You also will not have to go all the way back to the front of the park to get your wristband, you can look for Cast Members next to the
Avengers Campus main entrance. Look for a sign that says "Event Check-In", and you can visit that location which should be much less crowded.
A great tip for Oogie Boogie Bash is to ride attractions and make sure to eat dinner before the official 6:00 PM party time, and then you'll have the entire party to explore the
treat trails or
Villains Grove. Don't forget to bring a bigger bag if you want to take home lots of candy!
Stephanie, I'm wishing you and your family a spooktacular visit! If you think of any other questions we can assist, don't hesitate to
come back and ask!
Have a magical day,
Melissa
