There is high demand for the first party and a couple years ago Disney figured out they could charge a lot more for it than the other august parties. Every disney blogger and influencer must be at the first party reviewing it or they risk losing viewers. Social Media folks aside some people just like being the first to experience the party.

There is nothing different or special about the first party vs all the others as far as the actual party goes.

My wife and I ordered tickets for the first party in August. We have never done any WDW party. Maybe we have to become a social media influencer (a legend in our own mind) and join the rest of the crew.

I have nothing bad to say about social media influencers or bloggers. I only know a few because my wife watches 2 or 3 channels. If she sees Chris Provost (and I know he primarily does DLR) she may cry and try to hug him. She calls him the Mr. Rogers of Disney. That's quite a compliment because Fred Rogers might be one of the five most influential people ever in television.

I love Chris! I was addicted to his "Disney world tour" last summer, and looking forward to his WDW hotel marathon this year.

And to keep this on topic, I got my tickets for Oct 3 ($169 each, no DVC discount). The system wouldn't let me use multiple forms of payment, but it seemed super glitchy at 6:15 am. I have the confirmation emails and it's in MDE, so I should be good.

It is $149 for August 9 (first night) and $119 for August 13. Those are the only dates I’ve tried to see so far. The reports of split day issues scared me from linking my other reservations. DVC and AP discount both knock off $10 per ticket.
Edited to add: Ages 3-9 is also $10 less than the prices shown below which is for Disney adults.

I read the first 3 posts -- I'm lasered focused here Moderators. But, I have some MNSSP questions for the more experienced party attendees.

1.) The snacks on post 3 appear to be related to the 2023 party? Does WDW announce new counter service menu items or snacks as the party approaches? And, if so, is it one grand announcement or do they slow roll the announced snacks and menu items for the party?

2.) My DW is dying (pun intended) to see the "Dead" Dans sing. Do they roam about Frontierland (like they do on Main St. during the day) or are they stationary above the pathway connecting Frontierland to Adventureland (adjacent to CBMJ f/k/a CBJ) like I saw in a party video?

I can answer #2!!!

When we were at the party last year we saw them up on the roof top area where sometimes the bears are from the Jamboree singing up there! They might have roamed their way there, but we only saw them singing up top the building and they were fantastic all dressed up!!

We got our 3 tickets this morning for the Aug 16th date!!

Just got tickets for the family in Sept lets gooo

 

[AnnaKristoff2013]

So tickets are live and I have a question. It shows DVC pricing since we are going in September. We are DVC members but we shouldn't be eligble for discounts since we bought resale and are not grandfathered in. It will allow me to pruchase those tickets but for a $10 savings I don't want to run into an issue. Anyone know if it's just a blip in the system?

Are you also AP holders? I'm DVC (no blue card) and an AP holder, and the system is notorious for giving me the DVC discount instead of the AP discount off of things like parties, food and beverage, merchandise, etc. (The discounts are identical anyway). I've never had a problem. Either way, I'd just purchase it and not worry about it, they're not going to void your tickets.

Just purchased our tickets! $253 and change in total for two tickets.

Is that DVC pricing by any chance?

$382 for two tickets on 10/8. Excited to take our son to Disney and this party for the first time! It was the wife and I first Disney park/party we went to.

 

[MomOTwins]

Wow, for our Oct 11 date it is actually cheaper to buy a day ticket that day than a party ticket. I think I will just do that—too hard for kids to stay up late and the theme park is always low waits on party days

We are looking at September 20th or 22nd. Do you happen to know the pricing for these and if not what was the pricing for your September party? Thanks!

 

[Naomeri]

Got my ticket for Halloween night!

 

[AustinTink]

Do the auxiliary wristband locations close down at some point throughout the night? We might be arriving late to the party (late meaning after 7) and wondering where the shortest wristband line will be at that point or if the main entrance will be the only option.

October 8th! This is our 20th trip down from CNY, but our first trip with our 4 adult children, and 2 grandboys (It's their first trip!!) Priceless!

Yes Here is the DVC pricing for the 20th. I think they were all the same for those Sept dates.

Just add 10$ per ticket for the non DVC price

 

[howedaniel]

tickets booked for Aug 20th this date is $119, glad it was at the lower end, I can use the dollar difference for the gallons of water I’ll need during the party in August Heat

 

[HopperFan]

2 AP Tickets in September, total with tax $253.48.

Happy Haunts to all!
