Stopping in Disneyland from October 18th-21st with my bestie on our way to visit some of my family! We'll be staying at the BW Courtesy Inn. I've been to DL/DCA three times, she's never been. SUPER excited! But curious about how the Halloween Party at DCA will work on the 20th. Since it's a hard ticket event I assume if you're in DCA that day and DON'T have a ticket you have to leave early? We don't need to do that and don't want to lose a portion of the day by going to DCA on the day of the party if we're just gonna get kicked out so we'd be going to DCA on the 19th and then DL on the 20th. Is this replacing Mickey's Halloween Party at DL or do they have a Halloween Party too that we have to plan around?
This replaces the party at Disneyland. I believe they give you a wrist band and that’s how they separate who needs to go and who can stay in. If you have a normal ticket and party ticket I forget how early in the day you can request a wrist band so you can stay in.
The site says the Halloween ticket gets you into DCA up to four hours before the party starts, and on the 20th it starts at 6pm... so you might be able to get a wrist band starting around 2pm and then just be “good to go” till the night.
