2015 Halloween and Christmas Party Dates Announced!

Dates have been announced for this year’s Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party and Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party!  What better way to celebrate Halloween then by putting on your costume and trick-or-treating through the Magic Kingdom?  Or Christmas with snow on Main Street and cookies with hot chocolate?  My favorite of the two is the Halloween Party-with the unique Boo-to-You parade-preceded by the Headless Horseman-and a special Happy HalloWishes fireworks show, you’re sure to have a fantastic time for Halloween!  I’ve got an In Depth Mickey’s No So Scary Halloween Party post that I put up previously with lots of info if you’re wondering what all the fuss...I mean fun!...is all about.

Dec.1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, 18 

Tickets will go on sale for the parties in April, stay tuned for pricing...

One thing I do recommend if you’re tight on your ticket budget is using the party as your Magic Kingdom day if you were planning on going to the party anyway.  You can get into the park as early as 4pm (even though the party doesn’t officially start until 7pm) and stay until midnight--8 whole hours!  That’s lots of time to enjoy the park, especially since a limited number of tickets is sold for each party so lines should be quite a bit shorter than during the day.

By the way, if you want to go to the Halloween party on Halloween (10/31), be sure to get your tickets early.  That’s the one night you can be sure will sell out earlier than you expect...no surprise, right?

Have a fantastic time, and don’t forget-if you’d like assistance planning and booking your trip, just let me know...I’d be happy to help!

Do you plan on going to the Halloween or Christmas Party this year?  I do!

Tuesday Tip: Photopass cards at Walt Disney World

With the ability now to have Photopass photographers just scan your MagicBand after they take your picture to put your photos right into your account, not as many guests have been using the traditional Photopass cards:

For those who do, here's your Tuesday tip.  As soon as you get your card, take a clear picture of the back with your camera or phone:

Now, if you happen to lose your card during your vacation, you'll still have the number from the back of the card to enter online to retrieve the photos that have been taken on that card so far...so no lost pictures!  You're allowed to get and enter multiple cards into your account online, so if you do lose your card, you can always get another from the next photographer.  By taking a picture of the back, you ensure that even if you do lose your card along the way, you won't lose the precious memories made during your vacation.
