Hey all,,

Looks like Disney released press release of what we can expect at DLP Halloween this year , with the addition/ elaboration of the Disney villains posing in Castle Courtyard as has happened in the past......led by Malificent

Also sounds like they're continuing harvest theme with Mickey/Minnie parade - I wasn't there last year - so does this replace the Magic Everywhere parade - or are we lucky and have both?
Let the halloween hype begin  :D,
Jim.

Hey Seraphelle,

Well that's not bad!:) Does it happen immediately before (like the older halloween pre-parade with the horses and Jack SkellIngton) or at another time/ earlier in the afternoon?

Let the Halloween hype begin indeed!!!!  ;D

Our first Disney Halloween in 62 sleeps! Not that I'm counting...

The Halloween Harvest cavalcade is earlier on in the day and not just before Magic on Parade. If it is like last year it happens three times a day running from It's a Small World gate to Town Square and back again. The times were around lunchtime.

It's a great parade and I look forward to seeing the new additions to it this year.

I like the enhanced Castle Courtyard villain meet and greet and look forward to seeing the new Villain event on Central Plaza.

I'm interested in going to this year's Halloween event with some friends, but does anyone know how ticketing works? Can you just turn up or do you have to pre-purchase them?

I've never been for Halloween, always go for Christmas, but it strikes me Disney do far more decorating for Halloween than Christmas. Maybe I need to change my travel plans.

I've never been at Christmas, so couldn't really say about Christmas - I know they have the tree and some additions in Fantasyland. Do they have snow on main street in DLP?
I've never really been that phased about seeing Santa in Disney, as I wouldn't really associate him as a Disney character in any way, but everybody loves the villains (which come to define so much a part of all the Disney movies through history, right from Snow White) In many ways they're just as much main characters as the heroes and usually more interesting!

Go on RocknRoller, take a trip to Disney during Halloween!;-).... you might just end up wanting to go during this season every time...

... just to get everyone in the mood:  :D    (including some footage that didn't make it to the movie)

You have to pre-book the Halloween Party tickets. My boyfriend and I have just booked ours. We have had our trip booked since April. We booked the hotel & Eurostar desperately not through DLP, so we just called the UK DLP booking number and asked to buy two Halloween Party tickets. As we are Dream Annual Pass holders, it cost £50 and they are posting them to us.
DLP: 1992 Summer (Cheyenne).
2012: May (Santa Fe).
2013: Nov (Kyriad).
2014: Jan (Cheyenne), & Halloween (Kyriad).
2015: Jan - Birthday Trip (Disneyland Hotel) & Sept (Sequoia Lodge - Golden Forest).
2016: April (Sequoia Lodge - Golden Forest).
2017: Jan (Santa Fe - 1 night birthday trip), March (Hotel New York - Empire State Club), June (Cheyenne - 1 night trip) & Sept (Santa Fe).
Upcoming:
Sept 2018 (Newport Bay Club - Compass Club).

Excellent, thanks!

EDIT: Is that £50 each or total for both of you?
