If you’re dreaming of spooktacular Disney magic this fall, it’s time to get your plans in place! Whether you’re team Walt Disney World or team Disneyland, Disney’s two beloved Halloween events are back for 2025: Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at Magic Kingdom in Florida and Oogie Boogie Bash at Disney California Adventure in California.
These separately ticketed events are known to sell out quickly, especially on weekends and closer to Halloween night, so getting the scoop early gives you a major advantage (and we love a strategic traveler!). Here’s what you need to know to plan ahead and pick your perfect fright night.

Which One Is Right for You?
If you’re traveling with younger kids and want a classic, less spooky feel, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary is the gold standard. If you’re after immersive villain vibes and more thrills with your chills, Oogie Boogie Bash might be your Halloween dream.
Both are unforgettable—just tailored to different kinds of magic.
