2024 Halloween Golf Cart Parade Brings Spooky Fun to Disney’s Fort Wilderness

The Halloween golf cart parade has returned for 2024 to Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground. For the annual event, guests rent or bring their own personal golf carts, decorated in Halloween “costumes,” often inspired by Disney Parks.

The parade was held at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, October 30. It featured many golf carts, all decked out in various “costumes.”
