"Official" 2018 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Spooktacular Celebration!

[FoxC63]

Is anyone still receiving calls regarding the parade viewing? Haven’t received one yet, so just wondering if they’re still working through the list and emails?

I got my call today! My buddy and I will be attending the dessert party on Oct. 30th... which is my birthday!

 

[FoxC63]

I totally agree.

I’m honestly so glad I held off on cancelling. I hadn’t told my mom we were doing this, but I think the parade viewing and the fireworks viewing will be so nice and a pleasant surprise for her.

She's going to appreciate both views!

Does anyone know if it is possible to pick up HARD TICKETS for the party in advance from somewhere on property? I am Canadian and they do not ship to me, so they only exist in MDE account. I would like to have an actual physical ticket/card 1) to swipe to enter and avoid it potentially using on of my DH's park days and 2) just having a possible souvenir.
Cheers.

I am picking mine up at guest services

@dachsie is correct, you can pick them up at your resort, Disney Springs and at any Guest Service Location. I'm not sure if you need a print out of your confirmation or if they'll just scan your band so be prepared.

The location for the soirée viewing was on the side of the hub facing Liberty Square. I’m not sure how large of an area was actually reserved, but our view was right down the bridge.

Yep! Just like this...

Quick question! I'm the only AP in my family, can I buy discounted tickets for everyone in my party? It's a total of 4 adults and 2 kids. I was allowed to yesterday but my TA says it will only allow her to apply the discount to 1 ticket?

You can definitely use your AP to buy addt'l tix, but I forget what the limit is?? I'm thinking 5, but I could be wrong.

I was just able to add 10 adult and 10 child tickets to my cart with the AP discount.

Good to know! For some reason I thought there was a limit.

 

[TISHLOVESDISNEY]

So did they work thru all of the dessert party reservations? I feel like after all of this, we need a dessert party roll call.

So happy this worked out and then some!

Now lets hope they add some villains to the meet n greets this year

I knew it was 10 but I thought it was ten only, so this is sweet!

There is... 10/10!

There is... 10/10!

So I emailed Guest Services because we had booked Terrace View and then cancelled it because they pulled the parade view. I then rebooked as Garden Plaza. Then I saw that everyone that had booked prior to the 18th was going to get the parade view. We had cancelled Terrace View on the 19th and booked Garden. I got a call back and they said that I could keep my Garden View and that they would still give my group the parade view. I specifically asked if I could keep Garden View and still get parade viewing and he said absolutely. I then asked how the timing was going to work with the parade view, then the short gap for the fireworks and the desserts. He said they don't have a final time for fireworks and parade but as they get closer they will be able to work out those details. He said no one had asked him about the very little time for desserts after the parade and prior to fireworks. He did say definitely check in at 4:30 and they will give instructions from there. My guess is they will likely open up for desserts early for those of us that have parade viewing and then keep desserts out later for those that have garden plaza with parade viewing.

60 days from arrival at Pop today. 62 days from MNSSHP date. Only ticket I have on my account is the party ticket. Successfully just booked 3 FPs between 3:20 and 6:00. (Was thankful to find BTMRR since as of now, it will be closed during the party. Here’s hoping we get to keep our FPs!

I’ll let you know if the disappear or if I receive notification from Disney that my FPs exceed my tickets. So far, so good!!

Hi all! Sleepy Hollow is open during the party, correct? Serving special treats? My question -- can you only purchase special treats, or do they also have their normal offerings? I'd like to try the chicken waffle, likely during a parade/fireworks viewing.

This is great to hear! Do you mind me asking when you emailed and when you got your call? I am in the same boat but have received no call yet. I sent my email on Saturday. Thank you!

Well, darn, Winston made me rebook the Terrace and cancel Garden. Ah well, I am sure my teenagers will enjoy sitting at a table after all the walking I am going to put them thru.

Good theory. The fact that all they are telling us at this point is check-in after 4:30 for more details tells me they haven't figured it out yet. The dessert party planning group likely needs to wait on the parade time to be finalized and then they'll figure out their game plan. If it's a 9:15 parade, they have a logistical nightmare on their hands and I'll be very curious to see how they handle it, but your idea of opening up for desserts earlier for terrace guests and staying open later for plaza guests would be a good possibility.

I find this all very fascinating and if nothing else, is giving me something to obsess over now that all my ADRs and FPs are booked and I'm ready to go!

Lucky you! We still have 118 until our trip. I’m impatiently waiting for fp day.
