Halloween " Party " or " Boo Bash " ? Announcement ?

[Touchdown]

Most Merriest was a 4 hour event and had all the entertainment. I was a very happy customer. If they do that to Halloween this year I will purchase tickets.

I have been to both boo bash and MNSSHP and of the two MNSSHP is by far a better event in my opinion so I hope it comes back

Best bet is that MNSSHP is gone for good. Boobash is here to stay. I think in the end you're going to have the exact same thing you had with MNSSHP before covid but they're just going to continue calling it Boo Bash.

Not all of the entertainment. The parade was a shell of its former self and one of the stage shows was missing.

Same pre covid entertainment but downgraded, only a couple hours in the park and paying a ridiculous amount? Yea… that’s a hard no!

 

[Vinnie Mac]

I think this year's party is going to go down the after hours Christmas party route but with a little bit of an extra "pre-pandemic flair" to it. So pre-pandemic Halloween party masked as a Boo Bash event

I'm so confused by this, after the announced halfway to halloween treats, I wonder if Disney will create sort of a "Christmas in July" with... Halloween in Spring? Sounds like insanity to me.

In fairness, Walpurgisnacht is a thing - though I don't exactly expect Disney to start celebrating it.

Disney Springs celebrates Christmas in July!

If only there was a Nightmare Before Christmas land in which one side is a perpetual celebration of Halloween, and the other side, Christmastown.

There's land behind the Haunted Mansion...

That is an absolutely brilliant idea. Do you have the woods as a mini-hub?

The teaser advertising on the WDW site is for Boo Bash no mention of MNSSHP.

As of yesterday MNSSHP was in the internal communications.

 

[Stupido]

I truly don’t care what they call it, I just want them to release tickets so I can feel good about starting construction on my ridiculous Wanda Maximoff cape.

I'm surprised. Thought Disney liked the After Hour events more.

They deffo like the pricing more.

 

[RememberWhen]

I’d be moderately happy with MNSSHP timing and activities at Boo Bash pricing (though, for a family of 5, one infant, one kid and one Disney Adult 10yo, we might be priced out anyway). But I’m not interested in the after party timing with little kids.

 

[G00fyDad]

They can still call it MNSSHP but have it as an after hours party at a higher price point.

I’d be rather surprised to see them cancel DE 4 nights per week but then again, it’s hardly well-loved. Might as well end the 50th early at this point. No one would notice.

In August the Halloween decor makes its appearance a good time for the 50th stuff to quietly go away.

 

[G00fyDad]

Now you are sounding like, I apologize in advance, BOB! Aaaaaaaaah (appropriate for Halloween though).

Maybe but I figure the higher the price point the fewer people will buy it keeping it even more empty in the parks. I couldn't care less about the investors.

Question- has the constant celebrations of anniversaries diminished the marketing impact? It seems the 50th has vastly underperformed. Epcot's 40th is five months away and nary a mention of anything coinciding with that.
