Booking is now open for both Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular Dessert Parties at Magic Kingdom, exclusive to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party this fall. The two packages return to the same two locations as last year: the Tomorrowland Terrace patio and a reserved standing area in the Plaza Garden. Pricing holds steady from 2025, with the terrace option at $124 per adult and Plaza Garden viewing as the lower-cost entry at $99. Both packages share the same dessert buffet and differ only in where you watch the fireworks. Let’s dig into the details.

TWO DIFFERENT OPTIONS, SAME BUFFET
Both dessert parties start at Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant with the same buffet. The choice comes down to where you watch Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular.
The Tomorrowland Terrace package keeps you on the patio for the fireworks. It is priced at $124 for guests ages 10 and older, and $74 for children ages 3 to 9, plus tax and gratuity. Check-in is at the entrance to Tomorrowland Terrace one hour before the fireworks begin.
The Plaza Garden Viewing package serves the same buffet, then sends you to a reserved standing area in the Magic Kingdom hub for the show. It costs $99 for guests ages 10 and older, and $59 for children ages 3 to 9, plus tax and gratuity. Check-in for this option is earlier, 1.5 hours before the fireworks begin.
Both prices match what Disney charged in 2025, so there is no year-over-year increase to report.
NOT-SO-SPOOKY SPECTACULAR DESSERT PARTY: WHAT’S ON THE MENU
Disney describes a buffet of sweets and sips, including chocolate-dipped strawberries, mini cannoli, park-inspired creations, and a variety of cheeses. Beverages include sparkling drinks, with beer and wine available to guests 21 and over with a valid form of identification.
2026 MICKEY’S NOT-SO-SCARY HALLOWEEN PARTY DATES
The dessert parties are offered only on Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party nights, which run select evenings from August 7 through October 31, 2026:
- August: 7, 11, 14, 18, 21, 23, 25, 28 and 30
- September: 1, 4, 8, 11, 13, 15, 18, 20, 22, 24, 25, 27 and 29
- October: 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 13, 15, 16, 18, 22, 23, 25, 27, 29 and 31
Showtimes for Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular are at 10pm during party evenings.
WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE YOU BOOK
A valid Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party ticket for the same night is required and is not included in the dessert party price. Check-in for both options happens at the entrance to Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant, where guests receive identification credentials needed for entry.
The dessert party operates rain or shine, even if the fireworks are delayed or canceled. There is a one-day cancellation policy, and the full price is charged or forfeited for a cancellation inside that window or a no-show. Disney also notes these reservations cannot be modified once confirmed, so make sure you lock in the correct date.
If you are deciding between the two, the math is straightforward. The Plaza Garden option saves $25 per adult and puts you in the hub closer to Cinderella Castle, while the terrace option costs more but gives you a fixed spot on the patio and a later, more relaxed check-in. We haven’t done either option during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party because it takes up so much time out of our evening. In general, we have enjoyed Magic Kingdom dessert parties, but this particular one isn’t for us.
