Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is finally here!
Mickey’s Not So Scary!
The Magic Kingdom after-hours event is sure to be full of fun, entertainment, snacks, and more! We’re here for the first night of the party and checking out everything so you know exactly what you’ll want to do when your party rolls around. Let’s check out the crowds during this year’s 2025 kick-off party.
Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is running on select nights from August 15th through October 31st, 2025! We’re here for the first night, and it’s clear we aren’t alone. When we first arrived at the Transportation and Ticket Center, there were signs up to direct the Halloween party guests to use the ferry boat.

This is likely to help with the flow of getting party guests to Magic Kingdom, while many guests who are not staying for the event will leave by monorail.

The party runs from 7 PM until midnight, but if you have a ticket, you can get into Magic Kingdom starting at 4 PM! We try to arrive by 3 or 3:30 to get in line for the party so we can get in as soon as possible to take full advantage of our ticket. The lines at the wristband pick-up did have us a little surprised!

Tonight’s party is sold out, so we were expecting heavy crowds for this event. That said, “heavy crowds” for Not-so-Scary still aren’t as bad as a normal park day because this event has limited capacity.
The crowds are here!

If you are not a fan of waiting in the heat, we recommend skipping the rope drop time at 4 PM to get in. Today’s temperatures were high, and in that large crowd, you can start to feel unwell before the party even begins. We saw many guests using umbrellas for shade.
It’s hot out!
We’ll continue to keep you updated about the party throughout the evening. Be sure to stay tuned to DFB for food reviews, entertainment tips, and more for the 2025 Disney Halloween season!
