It’s a great day to be a Disney fan who loves Halloween. Earlier today, a new look was revealed for Jack Skellington. This will be seen at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party this year. Along with revealing Jack’s new look, Walt Disney World Resort has also shared the dates for this year’s run of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party.

May 22nd will be the date that tickets will be available for all other guests. It is very common for party dates to sell out. If you have a date you know you want to go, it is a good idea to purchase tickets as early as possible.

Mickey’s Not-So-Scary guests can enter the Magic Kingdom as early as 4:00 PM before the party kicks off at 7:00 PM. This allows guests to have up to 8 hours to celebrate Halloween all across the park.
Exclusive Characters
There will be multiple exclusive character opportunities at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. This includes the chance to meet Jack Skellington and Sally. Over in Town Square Theater, Mickey and Minnie will be meeting guests together for the first time in their Halloween costumes.
Disney has shared that there will be more details about more characters available for the party in the future. They will also be in festive attire.
Disney has teased that there may be some new and returning Disney villains appearing at the party this year.
Enjoying the Party
Disney also shared about several other offerings at the party. This includes Trick or Treating, entertainment, and more! Check out what is being offered below!
Trick or Treating at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary
For some of us, our Halloween dreams include a bag overflowing with candy. Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is one of the best trick-or-treat destinations, with over a dozen treat trail stops marked on your party map. And this year, guests can expect even more fun than ever before with some familiar (and fiendish) faces surprising guests along the trails.
At each stop, cast members in their famously adorable Halloween costumes give out handfuls of Mars Wrigley favorites like M&Ms, Snickers and Starburst. And no worries if you forgot your pumpkin bucket at home: Each guest will receive complimentary treat bags for candy collection (that includes adults).
Guests with food allergies can also join in the fun at every stop. Grab a teal bag from a Cast Member and collect teal tokens along the trail to redeem your fill of allergy-free candy at Allergy-Friendly Centers.
There was a time before sparking shovels incited a bone-chilling response, and then you watched Mickey’s Boo-to-You Parade.
In this whimsical production, Mickey, Minnie and their friends have donned cute costumes to lead a parade of waltzing ghosts, Disney Princesses and treacherous villains. Guests can expect to see rare characters like Pain & Panic from Disney’s “Hercules,” and Vanellope from “Wreck-It Ralph.”
In 2025, 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.
Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular
It’s been three hundred years, right down to the day … or it seems that long since we’ve seen the Sanderson Sisters take the stage. This fan-favorite show is both hilarious and bone-chilling as Winifred, Sarah, and Mary try their haphazard best to cast a spell.
It turns out that they need a little help from their friends, who happen to be some of the most nefarious Disney Villains, including the likes of Hades, Cruella De Vil, Jafar, Dr. Facilier and The Evil Queen. Guests will help add ingredients to the cauldron with lots of clapping and singing along.
Disney’s Not So Spooky Spectacular
As the party creeps closer to the witching hour, guests are invited to a spooky story time with the Pumpkin King himself, Jack Skellington, who has transformed Cinderella Castle into a haunted house. Watch as Zero leads Mickey and Friends inside, where spiderwebs, skeletons and Grim Grinning Ghosts await.
Dazzling projections will transform the castle into a spooky fantasy while the sky comes alive with fireworks. Get ready for towering encounters with Ursula, The Queen of Hearts, and Oogie Boogie. Will Mickey and Friends make it out of Jack’s haunted house this time?
Stay Tuned: Food, New Merch, and Lively Cadavers
Once again, a few of your favorite rides are getting a grim overlay. Expect spellbinding transformations with special lighting and music. Check back to see which attractions are getting the Halloween treatment.
Speaking of scream-worthy experiences, get ready to groove at a new dance party with the music and moves of “Zombies 4” and more “Zombies” fan favorites. And a little spider told us that the Cadaver Dans will be back again this year to sing in soulful harmony.
In addition to festive candy apples and popcorn guests can always find in the park, our chefs are plotting and planning a new menu of specialty Halloween food and drink for even the most frightening of appetites. Our upcoming Foodie Guide will have all the ghoulish details.
Exclusive party merch will also be available for purchase at Magic Kingdom to commemorate your not-so-scary night of macabre memories.
