Magic Kingdom Focus on Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party


Today we are opening our Disney World map to the Magic Kingdom... and taking a sneak peek at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. I admit that I'm not a big fan of Halloween, but Mickey and his pals make it more fun than usual...

The Magic Kingdom is located on the north side of Disney World, near the top of the map. Since we always stay at the Disney hotel, it's just a (relatively) short ride right to the front entrance. If you're staying off property, you'll drive to the main parking area then take a tram to the Ticket and Transportation Center... and then take the boat or monorail over to the Magic Kingdom.

So what do you need to know about Mickey's Halloween Party? First of all, it's an "after hours" event. That means you'll need a special ticket... which costs $39 for adults and $33 for children age 3-9. Next, there are lots of special activities... trick-or-treating stops, special decorations, a special parade and a special fireworks show. (I told you there were lots of specials!)

And finally, some... but not all... of the Magic Kingdom attractions will be open. The official word is the "most popular" attractions will be open. That means the attractions that probably have the longest lines during the day are the ones that will be open for the party.

So how does your Disney World map help you plan? Use your map to find all of the hidden, out-of-the-way or less popular attractions ... and ride them during regular park hours. If you can, get copy of the special party map at Guest Relations and find the attractions that will be open... and plan to enjoy them during the Halloween Party!
