Every other factor to notice is that the 2025 Mickey’s No longer-So-Frightening Halloween Birthday party is beginning a complete week later than remaining yr. This isn’t standard and is amazingly unexpected. It’s commonplace for MNSSHP to begin previous and previous, however I don’t recall a time when the beginning date was once driven again. Ever.
Our best possible wager is that is to present Disney Starlight Night time Parade an extended runway of uninterrupted efficiency dates prior to Birthday party Season begins. With Starlight already behind schedule till no less than July, that new middle of the night parade wishes as many efficiency dates as conceivable as a liberate valve on call for and crowds prior to Birthday party Season begins, and reasons Magic Kingdom to near early a couple of nights every week.
Talking of which, consider how the Walt Disney International Calendar Adjustments Trace at Starlight Night time Parade Opening Date? Neatly, what we’ve extra lately heard suggests Starlight goes to be behind schedule even additional, lacking the window that the preliminary agenda teased. The most productive-case state of affairs is now the second one part of July 2025. In truth, we wouldn’t be shocked if Starlight doesn’t arrive till early August at this level. It’s already smartly over a complete month at the back of, and not one of the rumors we’re listening to are reassuring.
Level being, Magic Kingdom can’t be final early a number of nights every week at the start of Starlight’s run. That can throw an enormous monkey wrench into crowds and motive chaos at the nights when Starlight is working–even worse than what we already see with Fortuitously Ever After. In order that may give an explanation for why Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party isn’t beginning till August 15, 2025 as a substitute of the former week, like standard. That’s only a wager, although.
For reference, dates remaining yr have been August 9, 13, 16, 20, 23, 27, 30; September 2, 6, 8, 10, 13, 15, 17, 20, 22, 24, 26, 27, 29; and October 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 14, 15, 17, 18, 20, 21, 24, 25, 27, 29, 31.
That means that there have been two events remaining yr prior to the primary birthday celebration in 2025 (each August 16, 2024 and August 15, 2025 are the 3rd Friday of their respective months). There have been 38 events remaining yr–and there also are 38 events this yr.
By way of our rely, Walt Disney International has saved the similar selection of events per thirty days, and completed the week later get started by way of including two Sunday evening events in August 2025. How this affects crowds is still noticed, however fortunately, they’re including extra dates to the slowest month of the yr versus cramming much more into October, which is busier.

Price tag holders might be admitted to Magic Kingdom as early as 4:00 pm at the legitimate date in their price tag–giving them much more time to experience park favorites prior to the development starts!

Mickey’s No longer-So-Frightening Halloween Birthday party is among the best possible trick-or-treat locations, with over a dozen deal with path stops marked for your birthday celebration map. For the 2025 MNSSHP, visitors can be expecting much more amusing than ever prior to with some acquainted (and fiendish) faces unexpected visitors alongside the paths.
At every forestall, solid contributors of their famously lovely Halloween costumes give out handfuls of Mars Wrigley favorites like M&Ms, Snickers and Starburst.

In our view, there’s a ‘holy trinity’ of Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party leisure. The primary is Mickey’s Boo to You Parade, which is gifted two times all over the birthday celebration. In 2025, the Mickey’s Boo-to-You Parade will once more step off for its first efficiency at 8:15 PM to permit a lot of time for little ones to benefit from the party.
Mickey’s Boo to You Parade is kicked off by way of a dance team to hype up the gang, adopted by way of the Headless Horseman using down the parade direction. Following that, favourite Disney villains stride down Major Side road along Disney heroes, the long-lasting Haunted Mansion graveyard diggers and different favourite characters.
Boo to You Parade has had numerous minor adjustments within the remaining couple of years, with probably the most notable remaining yr being a logistical one, with the primary efficiency stepping off an hour previous. This was once massively certain for dispersing crowds, as Major Side road and the Central Plaza round Cinderella Fortress had turn into closely congested in earlier years because of back-to-back-t0-back leisure choices. Spacing the ones out alleviated some crowding. It additionally leveled-off crowds between the primary and 2nd parades.
Right here’s hoping that the 2025 Boo to You Parade receives really extensive improvements. A brand new go with the flow or whole unit could be implausible. Walt Disney International doesn’t wish to repair what isn’t damaged–Boo to You is very good–however a refresh could be a lot favored.
The second one leisure spotlight of MNSSHP is “Disney’s No longer-So-Spooky Impressive.”
That is the fireworks display hosted by way of the Pumpkin King, a.okay.a. Jack Skellington. “Disney’s No longer-So-Spooky Impressive” options projections, particular results and lighting fixtures paired with fireworks, tune and iconic Disney characters.
As all the time, we extremely suggest gazing from as just about Cinderella Fortress (close to Companions is excellent) as conceivable. No longer simplest will you be immersed within the perimeter bursts of the fireworks, however you’ll have an up-close view of Jack Skellington, the unequivocal spotlight of the display. Different Magic Kingdom fireworks presentations are higher loved from a distance–no longer this one!
In any case, there’s the “Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular” level display at Cinderella Fortress that’s carried out a couple of instances in line with evening.
The Sanderson Sisters, stars of the long-lasting “Hocus Pocus” movies, unite for an journey and phone on their comrades to summon without equal “Hocus Pocus” Birthday party Potion all over “Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular.”
Just like the film itself, Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular has a cult following amongst Walt Disney International diehards. Each and every efficiency of this display is packed, together with the one who happens when the clock moves nighttime (that’s our favourite one to look at, successfully extending the development). For just right explanation why, as “Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular” is implausible.
My hope is that Walt Disney International has extra up its sleeve on the subject of new-for-2025 additions. It’s been some time since Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party had a big refresh, and it’d be great to look that occur once more. Should you’ve been since 2019, you’ve roughly skilled the present match. About 95% of the choices are unchanged, and chances are you’ll no longer even realize what’s other except you will have a prepared eye.
There are a few impediments to main adjustments. First, Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party has bought out each and every unmarried match for the remaining 3 years. Should you rely Boo Bash, the remaining 4 years. After a gradual get started, the second one part of the 2019 season additionally bought actually smartly, too. So there’s no longer a lot of an incentive for Disney to make adjustments. Visitors are responding smartly to what’s already there.
The second one explanation why is moderately of an outgrowth of the primary: don’t repair what isn’t damaged. Visitors reply smartly to Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party as it’s actually just right. Numerous Walt Disney International-centric fanatics rave about Oogie Boogie Bash, however that’s very a lot a “grass is greener” factor–and that match may be beginning to really feel stale. MNSSHP remains to be the awesome match. Boo to You is an all-time nice Disney parade and Hocus Pocus Spelltacular is a contemporary vintage. Each may obtain refreshes, however replacements could be silly.
I’ve stated this prior to, however my largest ‘want listing’ merchandise is a modernized HalloWishes with the Jack Skellington determine and projections. Longtime fanatics would cross loopy for that, and few would mourn the lack of Disney’s No longer-So-Spooky Impressive. Despite the fact that the fireworks display is more recent and has its moments, it’s not anything particular. I’ve a more potent reminiscence of HalloWishes, a display I haven’t noticed in ages, than its substitute that I watched not up to a yr in the past.
I’d additionally love to look the Immersive Deal with Trails a l. a. Oogie Boogie Bash. The ones are really subsequent degree, and are the spotlight of the Halloween birthday celebration at Disneyland. Magic Kingdom apparently dipped its ft on this water remaining yr, with villains within the Princess Fairytale Corridor deal with path.
This wasn’t marketed, however it was once cool. It nonetheless didn’t grasp a candle to the paths at Oogie Boogie Bash, however it was once a just right get started. Increasing that might be a large win, even though it got here on the expense of conventional meet & greets. In keeping with the verbiage of the trick or treating main points for 2025, it feels like Disney is increasing upon that, however execution is the large wildcard.
Failing that, I’d identical to to look extra new persona meet & greets once a year. That is any other factor Oogie Boogie Bash does smartly, and I feel it will paintings at Walt Disney International. We’ve been doing MNSSHP for over 15 years, and lots of the meet & greets are the similar these days as after we began.
The nature element has no longer simplest gotten stale, however too constant and predictable. It might be amusing to have some surprises and a ‘you by no means know what you’re gonna get’ high quality. That is any other factor Oogie Boogie Bash does smartly, biking via uncommon characters in Carthay Circle.
Talking of items Walt Disney International hasn’t formally introduced, right here’s the anticipated listing of sights that are supposed to be open all over the 2025 Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party according to ancient precedent:
Adventureland
- Jungle Cruise
- The Magic Carpets of Aladdin
- Pirates of the Caribbean

- Tomorrowland Transit Authority Folks Mover
- TRON Lightcycle / Run
The strikethroughs are identified refurbishments that may run the period of Birthday party Season. We wouldn’t be shocked to look any other access or two added to this listing.
On a favorable observe, crowds for the previous couple of years were extra manageable. Along side considerably upper costs, Walt Disney International has very clearly diminished the attendance cap. This is a part of the explanation extra dates promote out.
Level being, crowds don’t seem to be just about as dangerous as they have been in 2018-2019. Should you remaining skilled MNSSHP in October 2019 when this downside height, you will have to realize the adaptation. Or no less than, you could have spotted in the previous couple of years.
That is no ensure that Walt Disney International will keep on with the decrease attendance cap for the 2025 Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party. They might decide that, on stability, visitor pride is upper if the occasions don’t promote out as simply. (Clearly, visitor pride is upper amongst attendees with a decrease cap, however that doesn’t account for visitors who get close out.)
We are hoping that’s no longer the case, although. Walt Disney International has hit the goldilocks zone for crowds–no longer too gentle or too heavy–at each MNSSHP and MVMCP. This doesn’t imply there’s 0 congestion or traces–you’ll nonetheless come upon each, particularly for uncommon characters and in entrance of Cinderella Fortress between the parade and fireworks, however there’s no fixing for that.
Which brings us to the following commonplace query or worry amongst readers: when will tickets to the 2025 MNSSHP promote out?
The key is that you don’t want to fret about 2025 Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party tickets promoting out…but. Should you’re studying this when the announcement is first being made all over Midway to Halloween, you don’t have anything to fret about, and that’s true whether or not you buy tickets all over the on-site window or after they’re to be had for most people.
Even with the previous couple of years surroundings the report for bought out dates, it’s very unusual for dates to promote out prior to June. Remaining yr, October 31 bought out on Would possibly 21–the earliest ever promote out!–however the following date didn’t promote out till July 19. The majority of dates didn’t promote out till August or September.
For reference, Halloween evening nearly all the time sells out first. From there, generally inexpensive dates and the primary evening promote out someday in July, with extra dates promoting out in early August. As soon as content material from the primary evening of the development floods social media, there’s generally a “run” on tickets for next occasions–and several other extra events promote out round then.
In different phrases, the 2025 Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party is sort of indubitably no longer going to promote out inside days of tickets occurring sale. That applies to each the presale window and most people window. So that you don’t wish to make an on-site reservation simply to have get admission to to the presale or rigidity out.
It’s conceivable the 2025 Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party will promote slower than the previous couple of years. This has been the fad with different Walt Disney International choices because of a mix of financial uncertainty, declining shopper self belief, plummeting global trip, and the hole of Epic Universe. That’s why Walt Disney International has gotten so competitive with discounting this summer season.
Alternatively, we’ve been down this street prior to with the exhaustion of pent-up call for. At this level, there’s no explanation why to consider MNSSHP tickets will promote slower in 2025. You may in finding that tough to consider, however a part of the Halloween Birthday party’s recognition is as a result of of the slowdown. That means that Floridians, fanatics, and different visitors are “buying and selling down” from dear Annual Passes and common tickets to MNSSHP. Epic Universe will harm (and receive advantages!) Walt Disney International in quite a lot of tactics, however it’s most definitely a non-factor with regards to MNSSHP.

No longer simplest will you be immersed within the perimeter bursts of the fireworks, however you’ll have an up-close view of Jack Skellington, the unequivocal spotlight of the display. Different Magic Kingdom fireworks presentations are higher loved from a distance–no longer this one!
In any case, there’s the “Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular” level display at Cinderella Fortress that’s carried out a couple of instances in line with evening.
The Sanderson Sisters, stars of the long-lasting “Hocus Pocus” movies, unite for an journey and phone on their comrades to summon without equal “Hocus Pocus” Birthday party Potion all over “Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular.”
Just like the film itself, Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular has a cult following amongst Walt Disney International diehards. Each and every efficiency of this display is packed, together with the one who happens when the clock moves nighttime (that’s our favourite one to look at, successfully extending the development). For just right explanation why, as “Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular” is implausible.
My hope is that Walt Disney International has extra up its sleeve on the subject of new-for-2025 additions. It’s been some time since Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party had a big refresh, and it’d be great to look that occur once more. Should you’ve been since 2019, you’ve roughly skilled the present match. About 95% of the choices are unchanged, and chances are you’ll no longer even realize what’s other except you will have a prepared eye.
There are a few impediments to main adjustments. First, Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party has bought out each and every unmarried match for the remaining 3 years. Should you rely Boo Bash, the remaining 4 years. After a gradual get started, the second one part of the 2019 season additionally bought actually smartly, too. So there’s no longer a lot of an incentive for Disney to make adjustments. Visitors are responding smartly to what’s already there.
The second one explanation why is moderately of an outgrowth of the primary: don’t repair what isn’t damaged. Visitors reply smartly to Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party as it’s actually just right. Numerous Walt Disney International-centric fanatics rave about Oogie Boogie Bash, however that’s very a lot a “grass is greener” factor–and that match may be beginning to really feel stale. MNSSHP remains to be the awesome match. Boo to You is an all-time nice Disney parade and Hocus Pocus Spelltacular is a contemporary vintage. Each may obtain refreshes, however replacements could be silly.
I’ve stated this prior to, however my largest ‘want listing’ merchandise is a modernized HalloWishes with the Jack Skellington determine and projections. Longtime fanatics would cross loopy for that, and few would mourn the lack of Disney’s No longer-So-Spooky Impressive. Despite the fact that the fireworks display is more recent and has its moments, it’s not anything particular. I’ve a more potent reminiscence of HalloWishes, a display I haven’t noticed in ages, than its substitute that I watched not up to a yr in the past.
I’d additionally love to look the Immersive Deal with Trails a l. a. Oogie Boogie Bash. The ones are really subsequent degree, and are the spotlight of the Halloween birthday celebration at Disneyland. Magic Kingdom apparently dipped its ft on this water remaining yr, with villains within the Princess Fairytale Corridor deal with path.
This wasn’t marketed, however it was once cool. It nonetheless didn’t grasp a candle to the paths at Oogie Boogie Bash, however it was once a just right get started. Increasing that might be a large win, even though it got here on the expense of conventional meet & greets. In keeping with the verbiage of the trick or treating main points for 2025, it feels like Disney is increasing upon that, however execution is the large wildcard.
Failing that, I’d identical to to look extra new persona meet & greets once a year. That is any other factor Oogie Boogie Bash does smartly, and I feel it will paintings at Walt Disney International. We’ve been doing MNSSHP for over 15 years, and lots of the meet & greets are the similar these days as after we began.
The nature element has no longer simplest gotten stale, however too constant and predictable. It might be amusing to have some surprises and a ‘you by no means know what you’re gonna get’ high quality. That is any other factor Oogie Boogie Bash does smartly, biking via uncommon characters in Carthay Circle.
Talking of items Walt Disney International hasn’t formally introduced, right here’s the anticipated listing of sights that are supposed to be open all over the 2025 Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party according to ancient precedent:
Adventureland

- The Magic Carpets of Aladdin

The strikethroughs are identified refurbishments that may run the period of Birthday party Season. We wouldn’t be shocked to look any other access or two added to this listing.
On a favorable observe, crowds for the previous couple of years were extra manageable. Along side considerably upper costs, Walt Disney International has very clearly diminished the attendance cap. This is a part of the explanation extra dates promote out.
Level being, crowds don’t seem to be just about as dangerous as they have been in 2018-2019. Should you remaining skilled MNSSHP in October 2019 when this downside height, you will have to realize the adaptation. Or no less than, you could have spotted in the previous couple of years.
That is no ensure that Walt Disney International will keep on with the decrease attendance cap for the 2025 Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party. They might decide that, on stability, visitor pride is upper if the occasions don’t promote out as simply. (Clearly, visitor pride is upper amongst attendees with a decrease cap, however that doesn’t account for visitors who get close out.)
We are hoping that’s no longer the case, although. Walt Disney International has hit the goldilocks zone for crowds–no longer too gentle or too heavy–at each MNSSHP and MVMCP. This doesn’t imply there’s 0 congestion or traces–you’ll nonetheless come upon each, particularly for uncommon characters and in entrance of Cinderella Fortress between the parade and fireworks, however there’s no fixing for that.
Which brings us to the following commonplace query or worry amongst readers: when will tickets to the 2025 MNSSHP promote out?
The key is that you don’t want to fret about 2025 Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party tickets promoting out…but. Should you’re studying this when the announcement is first being made all over Midway to Halloween, you don’t have anything to fret about, and that’s true whether or not you buy tickets all over the on-site window or after they’re to be had for most people.
Even with the previous couple of years surroundings the report for bought out dates, it’s very unusual for dates to promote out prior to June. Remaining yr, October 31 bought out on Would possibly 21–the earliest ever promote out!–however the following date didn’t promote out till July 19. The majority of dates didn’t promote out till August or September.
For reference, Halloween evening nearly all the time sells out first. From there, generally inexpensive dates and the primary evening promote out someday in July, with extra dates promoting out in early August. As soon as content material from the primary evening of the development floods social media, there’s generally a “run” on tickets for next occasions–and several other extra events promote out round then.
In different phrases, the 2025 Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party is sort of indubitably no longer going to promote out inside days of tickets occurring sale. That applies to each the presale window and most people window. So that you don’t wish to make an on-site reservation simply to have get admission to to the presale or rigidity out.
It’s conceivable the 2025 Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party will promote slower than the previous couple of years. This has been the fad with different Walt Disney International choices because of a mix of financial uncertainty, declining shopper self belief, plummeting global trip, and the hole of Epic Universe. That’s why Walt Disney International has gotten so competitive with discounting this summer season.
Alternatively, we’ve been down this street prior to with the exhaustion of pent-up call for. At this level, there’s no explanation why to consider MNSSHP tickets will promote slower in 2025. You may in finding that tough to consider, however a part of the Halloween Birthday party’s recognition is as a result of of the slowdown. That means that Floridians, fanatics, and different visitors are “buying and selling down” from dear Annual Passes and common tickets to MNSSHP. Epic Universe will harm (and receive advantages!) Walt Disney International in quite a lot of tactics, however it’s most definitely a non-factor with regards to MNSSHP.
