Arrival

Guests can enter Magic Kingdom as early as 4:00 p.m. ET and must present valid Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party tickets to receive an event wristband.

This year, the plastic bracelets were replaced by ribbons.

At 7:00 p.m., regular park guests are escorted out of the park, and only guests with wristbands are allowed to remain inside.

If you’re already in the park, you can pick up your wristband from the following locations:

• Magic Kingdom entrance turnstiles
• Fantasy Faire
• Monsters Inc., Laugh Floor
• Tortuga Tavern

Even if you’re in Magic Kingdom, we recommend stopping by the welcome trail as pictured above, to pick up your first treat of the night.

Don’t forget to pick up a guide map (or take a full look inside here).

Trick or Treat Trails

Each guest receives a complimentary trick or treat bag. This year, the reusable bag features Mickey in his vampire costume.

There are 15 trick or treat trails around the park. You can find them by locating the inflatable totems, as pictured above, which light up at night.

The show has had a few changes this year. Minnie, Daisy, and Clarabelle debuted their “Hocus Pocus” Sanderson Sisters costumes, Farmer Goofy rides on the silo float, Wreck It Ralph and the Buzz Lightyear float were removed, Cruella is driven in her iconic car by Horace and Jasper, and more.

An impressive life-size puppet of Jack Skellington hosts this not-so-spooky spectacular nightly during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Performances are typically at 10:15 p.m., but be sure to check your guide or app to verify.

See more photos and a full video of the fireworks here.

When the crypt doors creak and the tombstones quake, the beloved barbershop quartet of Magic Kingdom transforms into the Cadaver Dans. Catch a mix of western ballads and spooky songs throughout the night in Frontierland.

Watch a full video of their set here.

Rusty Cutlass Pirate Band

Returning this year is Rusty Cutlass, a longtime favorite pirate band. They can be found at the Adventureland stage performing swashbuckling sea shanties.

See photos and video of their set here.

Three attractions have Halloween-themed “overlays” this year, with Pirates of the Caribbean losing the live actors. However, they can be found wandering Adventureland instead.

Space Mountain

Space Mountain is pitch black for the entire ride.

Mad Tea Party

Mad Tea Party features a special lighting package, spooky music, and evil laughter.

Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor

A short version of the show with a festive makeover is performed as guests go in and out. You can sit or just pass through, as this location features trick or treat stations at the entrance and exit.

Happy Halloween!
