Walt Disney World has released the schedule for the 2026 Mickey’s Not‑So‑Scary Halloween Party. The event will run from August 7 through October 31, with specific nights in August, September and October listed for ticket sales. New entertainment includes Stitch’s Masquerade Mashup in Tomorrowland and Captain Jack’s Buccaneer Bash in Adventureland, alongside returning shows such as the Cadaver Dans.

Disney World also announced changes to guest access and resort perks. Starting August 17, regular‑ticket guests receive extended park hours until 11 p.m., and Deluxe‑Resort guests can stay until 1 a.m. on August 19. Early entry times have been adjusted for several party nights. Additionally, three Disney Resort hotel benefits – complimentary water‑park admission on check‑in day, among others – will end after September 8, giving guests a limited window to use them.

Merchandise tied to the Halloween Party has been expanded, featuring new Evil Queen apparel, a Magic Mirror interactive toy, and other themed items available at the Disney Store. A weather advisory warned that thunderstorms expected on August 4 could affect outdoor plans, though no park closures were announced.
