Halloween season planning is officially underway at Walt Disney World, and if you’re staying on property, you already have a head start. Today, May 5, 2026, marks the opening of the Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party early ticket purchase window for resort guests, giving those booked at select Walt Disney World hotels first access to one of the most popular after-hours events of the year. Here’s the latest!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party Tickets On Sale for Resort Guests
Tickets for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party are now available for purchase starting May 5 for guests staying at select Walt Disney World Resort hotels, Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotels, and Shades of Green. Tickets will be available starting on May 12 for all other guests. That one-week window can be an advantage, particularly for popular October dates that have historically sold out fast.
Guests of Disney Resorts Collection hotels and other select hotels can purchase event tickets now, for event dates during their stay! All other Guests may purchase tickets starting May 12, 2026.
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party returns August 7th to Magic Kingdom, making it the earliest start date in the event’s history. Party dates often sell out, so the best tip is to plan early and purchase tickets in advance for your desired party date.
Ticket prices vary per date. Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Party Ticket discounts are once again available for Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club Members. In terms of price, event tickets are $119 to $229 per ticket, plus tax, with prices varying by event date. That range holds steady from 2025.
The 2026 party brings at least one notable new addition to Tomorrowland. Stitch is taking over Tomorrowland with a brand-new dance party at Rockettower Plaza Stage, joined by Lilo and Angel.
On the returning side, fan-favorite entertainment is confirmed to be back. One of the best stage shows at Walt Disney World is returning this Halloween season when the Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular returns for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, with the mischievous Sanderson Sisters from Disney’s Hocus Pocus returning to the mortal world during the Halloween season.
The popular Boo-To-You Parade is also making its return. Returning in 2026 is the 8:15 PM early parade showtime, which debuted in 2024 and continues to be a favorite for families with younger kids. Highlights of the Boo-To-You parade include the Headless Horseman, who gallops through the night to kick off the parade, along with a wicked assortment of Disney villains and dancers in a Fantasyland-inspired grand finale.
