The new Disney After Hours BOO BASH began tonight at the Magic Kingdom, replacing Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. Many things are different for the new event, but it still offers trick or treating for all guests. The candy is included in your admission to the event, and there is no limit on how many times you visit the locations. Let’s take a look at how it works!
Trick-or-Treating
Guests of all ages can wear costumes (see Disney’s costume guidelines here) and trick-or-treat during BOO BASH.
You can bring your own bag or pick up a complimentary bag from Cast Members around the park. This year’s bags feature the upcoming film “Encanto” on one side and “Muppets Haunted Mansion” on the other.
Trick-or-Treat Locations
The event maps show 8 trick-or-treat locations throughout the park. No locations are available in Liberty Square or on Main Street, U.S.A.
Trick-or-treating is available at:
- Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room
- Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe
- Splash Mountain
- Ariel’s Grotto
- Pinocchio Village Haus
- Pete’s Silly Sideshow
- Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Café
- Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor
Lighted inflatable beacons will guide you to the stations, where nearby Cast Members will dole out sweet treats.
Food Allergies
Teal bags for guests with allergies are available; just ask the Cast Members at the bag distribution stations.
At each trick-or-treat station, Cast Members will give you a teal token. If they see your bag, they should do it automatically, but due to the low lighting, you may need to ask.
Before the end of the night, stop by the Allergy-Friendly Center in Liberty Square to exchange your tokens for allergy-safe treats. Cast Members at the teal pumpkin will be happy to help.
This system is in use so that all guests can have the fun of going from station to station and collecting treats, but the allergy-safe items are kept in a separate location to prevent cross-contamination.

So uh, what was the candy like this year? And what is the allergy friendly option?
The candy is the same as always, for both regular and allergy friendly.
so sad Chapek doesn’t understand that 4-5-even 6 yr olds are cranky by 10 pm. This started way to late for actual kids. Its meant for older kids not younger ones.
