This Halloween season guests visiting Walt Disney World may not be able to experience Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party but in its place, Disney After Hours Boo Bash will offer the chance to celebrate Halloween at Magic Kingdom instead. This hard-ticketed event will run on select nights between August 10 and October 31st. In general, they will take place from 9:00 PM to 12:00 AM. However, there are a few exceptions to that. Today, the Disney Parks Blog shared some more details and also the dates for this Halloween ticketed event.
