Each season is filled with magic at the Disneyland Resort. There’s nowhere merrier at Christmastime than at Disneyland, and it’s one of our favorite celebrations. But HalloweenTime at Disneyland is something you truly can’t miss.

We’ve been marking the girls’ growth against the giant pumpkin on Main Street their whole lives. In addition to the charming orange pumpkins that line the storefronts on Main Street, seeing the characters in Halloween costumes of their own always brings smiles to our faces.

Can we get some serious awww’s to Harper’s first Mickey’s Halloween Party? This blurry little babe is going to be 10 this year.

An extra special way we like to celebrate was to attend Mickey’s Halloween Party. When Disneyland expanded the fun to Disney California Adventure Park, it was truly something worth squealing about.

The Tim Burton film The Nightmare Before Christmas filled the park with just the right amount of spooky. Whether you’re a fan of film, of Halloween, or just all around Disney, you’re not going to want to miss this!

Oogie Boogie Bash – A Disney Halloween Party

In place of Mickey’s Halloween Party, the Disneyland Resort is hosting Oogie Boogie’s Bash – A Disney Halloween Party. The unforgettable night of fun will be hosted at Disney California Adventure park on 20 nights.

Here’s What You Need to Know about the Oogie Boogie Bash

Separate-Ticket Event

Just like Mickey’s Halloween Party, this is an after-hours, separate-ticket event. The park closes to the general public, allowing Bash guests access to the celebration with reduced crowds and extra-special fun.

The celebration is conjured starting at 6 PM. Guests to Oogie Boogie Bash can enjoy the park for three hours before the party on Tuesday and Thursday nights (excluding October 29 and October 31), or four hours on Sunday nights (plus October 29 and 31). .

Tickets for the celebration go on sale for Disneyland Resort Annual Passholders, Disney Vacation Club members and Disney Visa card holders on Tuesday, April 23. General public ticket sales begin Tuesday, April 30th.

TIP: Tickets do sell out!

Treat Trails featuring Disney Villains

What’s Halloween without trick-or-treating? The Treat Trails are well stocked with the yummiest Halloween candy and healthier snack options. The Oogie Boogie Bash candy stations will feature your favorite Disney villains. Don’t forget to thank the Queen of Hearts for the treats or she may commend “Off with your head!”

Villainous! Nighttime Spectacular

Oogie has cast his spell over the park and has brought his villainous pals into the park. The World of Color will be bewitched in a new nighttime spectacular, “Villainous!” The storyline to the new show follows all-new character, Shelley Marie as she decides upon her Halloween costume. Her tale is brought to life with fountains, lights, lasers, projections, and special effects. Perhaps like Shelley Marie, there’s a little something villainous in all of us.

Redwood Creek Challenge Trail

Year round, the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail is a favorite for wilderness explorers to roam and run. During Oogie Boogie Bash, the wooded area will be transformed to become a dreamlike environment filled with hauntingly beautiful colors, sounds, lights, and shadows.

DescenDance Dance Party

We’ve got all the ways to be W-I-C-K-E-D. Fans of the Descendants (i.e. my kids), will adore the dance party at the backlot of Hollywood Land. A spell is cast, summoning the Isle of the Lost dance crew who leads crowds in routines set to Descendants films. The party DJ will have you grooving all night!

Frightfully Fun Parade

For the first time in Disney California Adventure, guests will be treated to the “Frightfully Fun Parade.” The celebration is led by the Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow who calls upon a cavalcade of characters. Will the villains disrupt the fun?

Mickey’s Trick and Treat Show

Fun for the whole family is kind of Mickey’s thing. Younger guests will say “Oh boy!” at the Disney Theater in Hollywood Land. The interactive stage production invites guests to join Mickey and his pals for dancing, not-so-scary tales, and candy.

Character Encounters

Dressed in their own Halloween costumes, Disney characters are available for meet and greets throughout the park. In addition to the characters dressed up, this unique opportunity allows guests to dress up.
