"Official" 2017 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Boo to You!

[Mrspeaks]

I just purchased our tickets for 9/7! I selected to print at home and it had me select each person in MDE for each of the tickets. Will these now show up in our plans? Right now it does not show on that day. I want to select fps for that day, so I hope it shows up soon. My fp slection day is tomorrow.

DD will be Nick and I will be Judy for our first MNSSHP. Nick's ears, tail and tie have arrived but no sign of Judy's ears, tail and badge. Now I am worried that they won't arrive at all. I bought them from eBay and delivery from china can be so unpredictable. I may have to start looking for substitute here in Canada. Does WDW have Judy ears in the parks?

I'm sure this was your first stop, but perhaps there's an etsy seller who makes them or would custom make some for you?

Just popping in to share my excitement! We are going to the party on Oct 1, which is also my younger daughter's 6th birthday. She is going as Princess Leia, specifically "the one with the long white dress and the braid bun with the braid hanging down and the necklace and the belt", not to be confused with "the one with the cinnamon bun-thingies on her head". My mum is a master seamstress and making her costume. Older daughter (8) is going as Rey, and Nana was sorting out the challenge of making the costume for her. We were at the Disney store last night and they had the Star Wars costumes on clearance. Rey costume, normally $60 CAD, was on for $16.99! We snatched that up in a heartbeat, and she is so excited because it has the goggles and the foot coverings to look like her boots.
Is it September yet? I am so ready for this vacation!

I love that Rey costume, I wish they did adult sizes. That Princess Leia costume one was one I considered, I don't have the hair for it and way too hot for a wig. Would love to see a picture after the costumes complete.

I loved them especially the second one until I saw the price, £37 and then £38 for postage , I'll give making them a go first. Great find though.

That's our party day as well! I chose to have our tickets shipped, but we moved and never received the hard tickets. About 24 hours after I bought the tickets they were linked to our MDE. I'd say if you don't see the tickets in a day or so call the ticket center, just in case.

Good luck on your FP day!

In the past what time did Belle and Gaston start meeting guests during the party?

They started at 7 last year (which was the first year they met together at the party).

Wow am I late to the party! We just got tickets for the party on Friday the 13th. I'm guessing it will be a crowded party. Has anyone been to one of the more crowded parties? What we're wait times like for rides? We are surprising my daughter with a quick weekend trip and I know she will want to ride some of her favorites during the party.

We will be there that night too!

We've done several sold out parties and the ride wait times have never been bad. Maybe 20 minutes for Mine Train, the rest were pretty much walk on. So many people are there for the party exclusive events, ride waits are minimal, even on a sold out night.

 

[Cluelyss]

I purchased my tickets a couple of days after the party dates became available. How long will it be until I get them?

Did you request for a hard ticket to be mailed? If so, I'd think you'd have them by now. I received ours within 2 weeks of ordering. Check to make sure you didn't select email delivery, or will call pick up?

The only ride we had issue with our on our party night was Winnie The Pooh! It kept breaking down...

My party tickets are showing under tickets and not plans this morning for my fp selection. I went ahead and scheduled my 3 fps for our party day since the system new I had 4 park tickets and did not schedule any for our studios park day. Hopefully our party tickets will show up and then I can go back and schedule for studios. I thought the 3 party ones were the higher priority.

For those looking, non-party MK dessert party is now open!

 

[Aurora0427]

Hey guys! We are going the last week in August, and I think we'll do either the 8/25 or 8/29 party. 8/25 would be my first choice, because we fly home on 8/30, and we have a one year old.

We attended the party in 2015 the week of Halloween. It was sold out, but not crazy. Very organized, and we did the dessert party for parade and fireworks viewing. Am I reading correctly that the dessert parties offered this year don't offer reserved parade seating?

Also, I know this has been asked before, but is the first party usually nuts? I thought I remember reading from 2015 that the first party was a nightmare-extremely crowded, disorganized, people inside without wrist bands, long lines, chaos! If y'all could point me in the direction of those answers, I'd be grateful! My baby is crawling all over me as I type this and I don't have time to read this entire thread right this second!

Thank You!

First, thank you to everyone for all the info AND for answering my questions!
If I buy my tickets online, is it better to print them out or have them mailed? If I print them out, where do I go and what do I do to get the chip? TIA!

Mum had the idea yesterday to go as the Cheshire Cat- striped tail on back of scooter and cat ears and grin on front. I told her she needed to dress in pink and purple stripes too to complete the look. If she does that it'll be a bit weird with me being Goofy and Mum being the Cheshire Cat, but I don't want to mess around with making an Alice costume.

I have a Cheshire Cat mouse ears hat - it has a name embroidered on the back, but you could probably pull the threads out or cover it up. PM me if you like!

That's incredibly sweet, but we're in the UK. Thank you though!

I could have it sent to your resort? Up to you!

When we went in 2015, we printed out our tickets. Just paranoia in case the technology failed!

Soooo after tons of debate and a lot of soul searching, we've switched our days from the first party to the last! If you're there on the crazy busy completely crowded Halloween night - look for Ursula as a pin-up.

And *gulp* really hoping they release some late Oct discounts. Resort prices at rack rate are crazy high.

Side question - does anyone know where I can get Ursula's necklace? I'm hoping they make one for kids that sings.

Not heard of a singing one but...

Did my FP+ reservations this morning. Followed all the excellent advice in this thread. Made the other days first and then did my party FP+ last. Made them for 3:25, 4:25 and 5:30, just in case, as suggested here.

Now tinkering a bit with my plans. I have a BOG (8:05 am) and Trattoria al Forno (10:40 am) breakfast ADRs that I am cancelling. I posted them in the September cancel thread in the restaurant reservations board. if you are looking for these, check out that thread and feel free to PM me.

I apologize in advance for getting behind in reading the thread the last few weeks. We will have 4 day tickets and be attending MNSSHP one night during our trip. I am still undecided if we will use a park day to enter before 4 on the MNSSHP day. Do I need to make all my other FP+ days first? Is it irrelevant if we plan on using a park day to enter before 4? TIA!
