Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party 2025

[HauntedPirate]

Honestly, they need to. August 15 is far too late. Practically Christmas. Pleasant fall weather arrives around July 30. You need a sweater by August.

Absolutely true. I’m surprised they wait until August when early-to-mid July is better weather-wise.

What Disney really needs is a way to change out Halloween and Christmas decorations at the flip of a switch. Being constrained to only 2 months of Christmas parties really hurts the bottom line. Imagine if they could have Halloween AND Christmas parties in September and October?! Double the parties, triple the profits!!!

Well... they *could* keep Christmas going for the first week of January going until the Epiphany (Jan 6 for most of Christendom).

Mickey's Very Merry Christmas in July Party should be a thing. Frozen egg nog and gingerbread cookie ice cream sandwiches?

To emphasize since people keep missing it....

In 2024 there were 38 party nights.​

​

In 2025 there will be 38 party nights.​

Same number of nights. 2025 is starting later, but it is adding more nights per week in the condensed time frame.

Also, in 2024, all the party nights were sold out. Some way in advance, like the first and last dates. Some the day-of.

Considering the economic times were facing this year, I wonder if we'll still see the same amount of parties sell out. It's very very pricey for a family of four to attend.

I understand Iger personally convinced the President to push out those tariffs by 90 days to ensure Disney can procure enough BOO-tiful popcorn buckets to support the entire Halloween season.

I was thinking mid-February, myself. Then there's only a 5-month gap between MK parties. Maybe they could finally fire up the long-awaited, never-implemented "Mickey's Patriotic Summertime Celebration" hard ticket events from mid-February until mid-July, when the Halloween parties start. MK would then have hard-ticket events year-round, allowing for many more revenue activation opportunities.

I am interested to see the specific date prices.

We did the party last year but we happened to be there for one of the cheapest nights - if it was one of the more expensive nights we probably wouldn't have done it. As a family of 5, $595 is bad but $1,145 is a lot tougher to accept

I get actually Halloween is going to sell out no matter the price but did feel like the cheaper nights were first to sell out last year. I wonder if there may actually be more nights towards the lower end but then the super popular night more expensive so the average is still higher than last year

Last year, Halloween was first to sell out, followed by August 13, August 20, then August 9/August 16 (announced July 31), then August 23/September 13 (announced Aug 5). August 27 was announced as sold out on August 15, along with August 30, Sept 2/6/10 and October 29.

Last year there were only 5 dates at the $119 price point.

Disney raised the top price for the Halloween party.

I think they will. I think the more interesting question will be how the other parks do. I know families, including us, who long ago actually came down just for the party. Basically come down the day before, spend the day at the hotel. Leasure day the next day, and all night at the Halloween Party. Next day maybe Springs and the hotel pool, then fly out. I'd think with the pricing and everything else, that may become a much more attractive option.

Extra nights per week is wild for anyone going down who isn't planning to do the party.. access to the MK after 6 will be very limited

Yep, and once you include xmas parties, that is the last 5 MONTHS of the year.

The non-party nights are going to be crazy especially with Starlight being so new

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Honestly, the August and September parties are comparable to any MK After Hours prices, but include all the other party exclusives. I don't think $140 per person is too exorbitant a price for a party. You aren't required to go on Halloween night.

Oh…so now it makes sense? Remember when they tried to sell you a block ticket for the last couple of hours a day and it was soundly rejected and they had to end them?

But then they tried again 2 years later and their disciplined crowd folded like a cheap suit?

Guess which one made sense…

That 10,000 tickets number is way too low.

Are you waiting for the Madame Leota mystical floating head to fill in a number to the usual vagueness?

Disciplined crowd?

Disciplined crowd?

Sorry that was supposed to be “customers”…maybe a tad facetiously

They were crazy last year (so I can't even imagine how bad it will be once Starlight opens)

 

[Mickey1984]

Anyone know what time tickets drop today?
