Break out the pumpkins, dust off your Mickey ears, and get ready to trick-or-treat your way through Magic Kingdom because Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is officially returning for 2025, and Disney just dropped all the details.
Running on select nights from August 15 through October 31, this separately ticketed event transforms Magic Kingdom into a festive (and frightfully fun) Halloween haven. As the sun sets over Cinderella Castle, the atmosphere shifts as spooky music fills the air, shadows grow longer, and the Haunted Mansion hums with main character energy. If you’re dreaming of a night full of family-friendly chills, now’s the time to start planning.
The party takes place on select weekday and weekend nights, and if past years are any indication, many dates will sell out. Here’s the full lineup:
August: 15, 17, 19, 22, 24, 26, 29
September: 2, 5, 7, 9, 12, 14, 16, 19, 21, 23, 25, 26, 28, 30
October: 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 13, 14, 16, 17, 19, 23, 24, 26, 28, 30, 31

What’s New (and What’s Returning)
Of course, fan favorites Jack Skellington and Sally will return for meet-and-greets, along with many other beloved characters in spooky getups (expect more announcements in the coming weeks).
Some iconic offerings are also making their return this year, including Mickey’s Boo-to-You Halloween Parade, Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular, and Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular fireworks show.
And let’s be real, the candy haul is half the fun, and Disney knows it. Expect over a dozen treat trail stops, with cast members handing out handfuls of Mars Wrigley favorites like M&Ms, Snickers, Skittles, and Starburst. And don’t worry if you forgot your pumpkin bucket, complimentary treat bags are provided to all guests, including adults.
Costumes, Photo Ops & More
Halloween is the one time of year when guests of all ages can dress up in full costume, so expect to see plenty of Disneybounders, villains, and tiny pirates roaming the park. There will be exclusive photo ops, limited-edition merchandise, and plenty of Halloween-themed snacks and drinks available only during the party.
So grab your costume, start picking your party date, and maybe start doing some push-ups, because those treat bags are going to be heavy.
