Disney theme parks launch 2026 Halloween seasonal events

Disney theme parks have transitioned into their 2026 Halloween season, marked by new seasonal offerings and high demand for special events. At Disneyland Resort, new themed treats and drinks, including Matcha Mickey-shaped Waffles and various pumpkin-inspired desserts, are becoming available ahead of the official celebration running from August 21 through October 31.

At Disney Springs, Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar has introduced a seasonal menu featuring items such as Candelabra Eggs and various themed cocktails available through November 9.

In Florida, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom is seeing significant popularity, with 11 event dates already sold out across August, September, and October. While September currently offers more flexibility for guests, August availability is becoming increasingly limited.

Additionally, recent quarterly earnings from The Walt Disney Company highlighted a three percent increase in domestic theme park attendance, partly attributed to seasonal events like Cool Kids’ Summer.
