2108 MICKEY’S NOT-SO-SCARY HALLOWEEN PARTY DATES
Halloween Party Dates begin in August 2018 – wow! Prices have increased across the board by a couple of dollars, but the most significant increase is for Halloween night: a $10 jump to $125 per adult. This year, you can save up to $8 vs. the adult gate price on Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party Tickets through Undercover Tourist.
New for 2018: Save $10 on your tickets compared to the day-of purchase price when you buy at least a day in advance (except for October 31st)! Day-of prices start at $85 per adult and $80 per child (ages 3-9), plus tax. Party dates are the following:
- August 17, 24, 28, 31
- September 3, 7, 9, 11, 14, 16, 18, 21, 23, 25, 28, 30

2018 MICKEY’S NOT-SO-SCARY HALLOWEEN PARTY ENTERTAINMENT
Plenty of our favorites are coming back in 2018, happily. Mickey’s Boo-to-You Halloween Parade, Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular, and Happy HalloWishes fireworks always draw massive crowds and, except for Happy HalloWishes, there’s multiple showings. If you’re not a fan of large crowds, the second offering generally has way less viewers.
You’ll also be able to watch The Cadaver Dans (a spin on Dapper Dans). Head to Frontierland to catch their live (or should we write “dead”) show several times throughout the party.
