Walt Disney World has confirmed the entertainment offerings for the 2026 Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party season at Magic Kingdom, including the return of fan-favorites.

Characters

This year’s event will feature character greetings, as usual, like Jack Skellington and Sally, Mickey and Friends, Disney Villains, and more. Festive royal couples ready to say hello are Ariel and Eric and Aladdin and Jasmine.

Boo To You Parade

Mickey’s Boo-to-You Halloween Parade will return this year. This parade features a procession of waltzing ghosts, Disney Villains, Disney Princesses, and more. In 2026, the Mickey’s Boo-to-You Parade will again take place at 8:15 PM to allow plenty of time for little ones to enjoy the celebration.

Check out our video of the parade from 2024:

More Entertainment

New this year, Stitch is hosting an ever-changing dance party at the Rockettower Plaza Stage in Tomorrowland with the help of his friends Lilo and Angel. After getting his paws on Lilo’s Costume Trunk, every accessory he tries on will spark a theme swap and keep the party playfully unpredictable all night long.

Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular will also return this year, with Winifred, Sarah, and Mary ready to cast another spell with the help of Hades, Cruella De Vil, Jafar, Dr. Facilier, and the Evil Queen.

Cinderella Castle will also transform with the projection show, Disney’s Not So Spooky Spectacular. In this show, guests will see Jack Skellington transform Cinderella Castle into a haunted house, with Zero leading Mickey and Friends inside to see what awaits them.

This show will feature projections on Cinderella Castle alongside fireworks in the sky above. Villains featured in the show include Ursula, the Queen of Hearts, and Oogie Boogie.

Trick or Treating Returns

Trick or treating will be available at over a dozen treat trail stops in the park.

Each guest will receive a complimentary treat bag for candy collecting. Guests with food allergies can grab a teal bag from a Cast Member and collect teal tokens along the trail to redeem for allergy-free candy at Allergy-Friendly Centers.

Trick or treaters will not have to wear a costume to get candy, but guests are encouraged to dress up in creative Halloween costumes. You can read Disney’s official costume guidelines for more details.

Ride Overlays

Ride overlays will return this year, with the following attractions likely getting spooky music, special effects, and more added:

• Experience Space Mountain in pitch-black darkness with a spooky soundtrack
• At Mad Tea Party, enjoy special lighting effects
• Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor will offer fun jokes with a Halloween twist
