"Official" 2019 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Frightfully Festive Celebration

[FoxC63]

I did my fast passes this morning for my party day and they didn't have any passed 6pm

Correct. During special events they end at 6pm.
3:30-4:30
4:30-5:30
5:30-6pm

I called back and after some time on hold, the CM finally figured out why I couldn’t book FSs. It is because we are doing a split stay so in a couple days I should be able to book

So what happened? Are you all set?

What is up with the 15th?! So far we've been speculating Disney is throwing a special party that night but I've not read anything to confirm. Interesting. Just to stay up to date, guests attending that night cannot book dessert nor parade packages?

The parade party can be booked. Still unable to book either dessert party for 9/15. Your guess is as good as mine as to the reason.

This looks like so much fun! My 3 year old would love coming to this, since his favorite holiday is Halloween. I may have to start planning a trip!

If he can swing the late hours, then definitely do it. Mine was 2.5 for his first one and even at 16 he still remembers some of that party!

Oh yes. Sorry. All set!

I booked my FPS a few days ago and had no issues booking FP+ for my party day.

I'll be there with you on the 27th, so we'll be dealing with the crowd situation together. Without SWGE, it would have been expected to be one of the lowest crowd days of the season. No one really knows how SWGE will impact it. I'm crossing my fingers it won't be too bad yet, but there's no way to know.

If you feel weird doing MK for the party without having done it normally, then you could certainly make the day of it. Personally, I know it's going to be hard keeping my kids up late, so we're not doing anything in the day leading into the party night.

I have two teens with me this trip so they're good with all day etc. no clue about sw impact, ugh!! But that week there's certainly a lot being offered besides sw. lots of emm events and dah events, two halloweens parties, epcot f&w. so people can all spread out i guess. fingers crossed good weather, low crowds....
i will look for triplets then?!

Add-on question...

If you go to MK during the day, and also have party tickets that same night... can you "double" your fast passes, so to speak. i.e. have three FPs earlier in the day, and then three more between 3:30 and 6pm as part of the "party ticket"?

Nope. It's 3 FP's per day period.

They remind me of 2nd grade when I kept telling my Mother that my shoes hurt me and she didn't believe me and I was in pain for days. That and the price tag just remind me of all kinds of pain!

I think it would be a long day. I would rope drop another park, go back to the resort for a swim or relax time and then head to the party around 4 or 5. It's also a good morning to spend at Disney Springs for breakfast or a little shopping!

That's sort of what we are doing... Sunday is our parade day and we are doing no park day. We are sleeping in (past the 4 or 5 AM usual rope drop alarm) and meeting our friend for early brunch at Homecomin and we will walk off (some of ) the food strolling and shopping DS.. Then she is heading back hotel with us to swim,relax, get ready for party and head to MK. Also not sure what day anyone is going but I know , it's most likely to be hot and humid which is very draining for a longday.

I was thinking about "rope dropping" MK itself, then going back to the resort (WL in our case) to swim/rest, then coming back for our early dinner reservation at 3:50. Well, maybe not rope dropping, since it will be EMH, but getting there relatively early.

We're only there for 5 nights (yes, I said only five nights ), and the kids want to do a water park one day.... so I figure doing the day of, and then the night of, the party would effectively be our "two days" of MK, which IMHO needs two days to experience properly. Maybe swing by in the morning before we leave for one final visit of the trip.

Follow-up question... what are typical plans for the day after the party? I assume not doing another rope-drop the next morning.

Even if you're at a different park... say I went to AK that day/morning... if I used 3 FPs there I couldn't then book three under the party ticket?

Thanks

 

[FoxC63]

Sleep! And lots of it!

No. It's that simple. You are allowed to book 3 FP's per day. And I'll tell you, if you try to do more Disney will shut you down. They are very serious on their policy.

No. 3 per day.

@Kickstart

It doesn't matter what park you go to, you only get 3 FP's per day. The discussion of trying to go around it is not welcome on the DIS as it violates Disney Terms. The DIS will shut down, delete and do what ever they deem necessary to prevent this discussion going further.

Late morning breakfast with some resort hoping (monorail resorts). Evening at the parks or some mini golf.
