Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is an after-hours, separately ticketed event held on select evenings in August through October at Magic Kingdom. The party begins at 7 p.m. on event nights when the park closes to daytime guests, but those with valid party tickets can enter the park as early as 4 p.m. Annual Passholders can also get discounted admission to the event.

The event offers exclusive entertainment including Mickey’s Boo-To-You Halloween Parade, the Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular stage show, and Mickey’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular. Other party offerings include attraction overlays, exclusive food and merchandise, and character encounters — like with Bruno from “Encanto,” who is meeting at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party for the first time this year. And, of course, there is trick-or-treating.

This party is one of the few times adults are allowed to wear costumes in the park, as long as they follow the rules and regulations.

First Look: New Rendering from “Disney The Tale of Moana” Premiering on Disney Treasure Later This Year

“Disney The Tale of Moana,” the Broadway-style show debuting on the Disney Treasure later this year, will bring Moana’s unforgettable coming-of-age adventures from the Walt Disney Animation Studios film to live audiences for the first time – and we’re sharing a first look from one of the key climactic moments from the production. 

Artist Concept for “Disney The Tale of Moana,” the Broadway-style show debuting on the Disney Treasure

The scene depicts Moana as she takes her final stand against Te Kā, the fiery lava-wielding foe who will appear on stage as an incredible fifteen-foot-tall puppet, the largest puppet ever produced for a Disney Cruise Line show. “Disney The Tale of Moana” will also portray Moana’s courageous determination to restore the heart of Te Fiti and the resulting transformation of the Te Kā puppet into her true self, a stunning green goddess.

Audiences will see many of their favorite characters from the film reimagined as puppets, including a young version of Moana. The captivating array of puppetry is being developed for the show by Jeff Conover, creative director of puppetry and articulation for Disney Live Entertainment, and Michael Curry, whose previous credits include “The Lion King” on Broadway.
