"Official" 2018 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Spooktacular Celebration!

[Cluelyss]

Do we need a hard ticket to get in?

No, not if you have an e-ticket or they are linked to your magic band.

 

[SquashBanana]

Thanks everyone for giving me some reassurance on my earlier post. I don't know why CMs often have conflicting information. I guess like any other business with a huge number of employees, sometimes it's hard to keep everyone on the same page.

 

[Princess_Lisa]

I don't want to be an alarmist, but I saw this post on the comments section of Undercover Tourist's 2018 MNSSHP page.

Has anyone heard similar or conflicting reports? I know the validity of CM's information can be inconsistent, and I'm hoping this is just another such example.

I asked when I bought my ticket at TTC and the CM said 4 PM, but as always that is never a guarantee.

When do table service reservations during party become available? Trying to book BOG but when I call they say they don’t have table service reservations during party hours YET. PS: I’m less than 180 days out.

If we just have the party ticket, and thus entering at 4:00, can we get our wristbands at the entrance tap points or do we have to pick them up at one of the designated stations in the park?

 

[DuckyMommy]

UGH - can you just go to the FedEx office?

I ended up having them delivered to a Walgreens near me and signed for them there. You can also notify them if you want to pick them up at the fedex office.

you will get them just after the tap point, before entering the park.

 

[SquashBanana]

you will get them just after the tap point, before entering the park.

Thank you! Follow-up question: What is the purpose of the Main St. bypass some people on here have mentioned? I initially thought party guests entering after 4 had to use the bypass to pick up wristbands. Is there an advantage to getting them from here vs. the other stations?

 

[RolloTomasi]

I imagine opening up the walkway around Main Street was done to cut down on the mass of people entering and leaving at the same time. I think they just wanted to alleviate the traffic jam.

edit - It was super convenient entering that way. Last year when we went to the Christmas Party we entered that way and it was just easier getting the wristband and making our way through the park without walking against the current of people leaving. Plus, they were already handing out treats and the party hadn't started yet.

This was my experience at previous Halloween parties. Tap in, get your wristband, and head for the bypass away from the leaving crowds; there will be cast members in party uniforms directing you. As I mentioned in an earlier reply, this is where you get your trick-or-treat bag and your first batch of candy. They also have Photopass and 1 or 2 merchandise carts set up in there.

If we want to head to Jack and Sally first should we skip the bypass and head straight to their line?

 

[lvcourtneyy]

I would. We got in line at 3:40 at the end of October last year and were the 4th people in line.

 

[TotallyMinnie83]

Does anyone know when they are going to start taking reservations for HalloWishes Dessert Party garden seating? We still can't book ADR's for some restaurant for party nights.

Last year there was a special website for the HalloWishes Dessert Party. So it was separate from the regular Tomorrowland Terrace / Garden Dessert Parties websites. There was also a separate website for dining during MNSSHP - including Be Our Guest, Cinderella's Royal Table, and Crystal Palace. I've googled and cannot find either website at this time.

Will we be able to get wristbands at the front entrance or will we need to get them by Jack and Sally?

Can’t wait

Will we be able to get wristbands at the front entrance or will we need to get them by Jack and Sally?

So long as they started to let people in at the front entrance at that time.

If you are already in the parks that day, I would probably grab bands by either Philharmagic or across from POTC, they started distributing early last year.

Also, if you have anyone else with you, you could take turns waiting in the line and going to grab your bands. That is what we did last year. Lined up around 3:40 and then went one after the other to get our bands.

Are you entering with a day ticket or just a party ticket? If you’re just using a party ticket, you’ll have to wait at the designated tapstyles at the front entrance and you’ll get your wristbands there. If you’re using a day ticket, you can pick the wristbands up in park.

We will only be using a party ticket so I will plan on getting the wristbands at the front entrance. For some reason I thought they didn't hand them out at the front entrance. I'm not sure why I thought that.

 

[LucyBC80]

I plan on entering the park around noon with my AP. What time they usually start giving out the party wristbands?
