This year will feature a total of 38 party dates. Tickets are on sale now for guests at Disney World resort hotels and will go on sale May 12 for all other guests. Now that tickets are on sale, we got a first look at the pricing for the party, with the most popular dates costing the most. These are all broken down below.
By comparing the pricing for this year’s party vs. the 2025 party, a clear trend emerges with a higher baseline price. Most party nights cost about $10 more than comparable dates last year, with some dates increasing by as much as $15. So while Disney has kept the maximum price the same for the entire season, more dates are now clustered in higher pricing tiers, meaning the overall cost of attending the party has increased in 2026.
After analyzing the party dates for this year, the cheapest dates fall in early August and early September, with Tuesday nights serving as the lowest-priced option across most weeks. The most expensive dates can be found in October, especially mid-month through Halloween, while Fridays and Sundays frequently fall into the highest pricing tiers each month.
Let’s take a look at the pricing for each month, which reveals a subtle but widespread price increase, where most nights have quietly gone up compared to last year, even though the peak price remains unchanged.
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party 2026 Prices
Tickets vary by date for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween party, with the range matching last year’s pricing between $119 and $229. The true test of a price increase, though, is to compare how many dates see the higher end of the tier for pricing. Let’s take a look at the pricing calendar and see how many dates are on the lower and higher end of that pricing spectrum.
August 2026 Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Prices
- August 7, 2026 – $159
- August 11, 2026 – $119
- August 14, 2026 – $119
- August 18, 2026 – $129
- August 21, 2026 – $139
- August 23, 2026 – $139
- August 25, 2026 – $144
- August 28, 2026 – $149
- August 30, 2026 – $149
August remains consistently the most affordable party time, with ticket prices not exceeding $159. The first party date on August 7 is the highest priced of the month, which is not unexpected, as the first day of any popular event is a draw not just regular guests but also content creators. We also can note an overall $10 increase for many nights in August 2026, especially on opening night, when compared to August 2025 prices.
There are only two tickets for the entire party season at the lowest $119 tier, and these both happen in August.

In September, we start to see prices creeping up, with the lowest ticket price at $149 and the highest ticket price at $184. Fridays and Sundays, especially later in the month, are treated as peak nights with the highest prices. If we compare to 2025 prices, the lowest September price increased by $10, and the flat early-month $139 pricing seen in 2025 disappears as prices trend upwards steadily instead.
Tuesdays remain the cheapest option, with Thursdays being a solid middle ground in pricing throughout the month.

When we look at dates in October, the lowest and most common ticket prices have risen by about $10 from 2025, with the maximum price remaining unchanged at $229. Pricing in October is more clustered in the higher end of tier pricing, with most dates between $199 and $224, especially as Halloween approaches. This reveals an increase of as high as $15, depending on the date, when comparing prices from 2025. While the highest possible price did not change, $229 for Halloween night the last two years, more dates in 2026 are closer to that ceiling.
Generally speaking, there are few cheap dates in October as prices steadily increase throughout the month. The most affordable dates in October are in week one, before jumping to $204 and steadily increasing throughout the month.

The pricing pattern for the 2026 Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween party fits into Disney’s broader pricing strategy lately, where increases are less focused on big jumps that stand out in headlines and focus more on shifting dates into higher price points gradually. These gradual increases impact the higher demand windows of time as these dates are pushed into higher pricing brackets. This is exactly what we’re seeing in October and September with mid-range dates being migrated into higher brackets without increasing the headline peak pricing.
Essentially, Disney has a pattern of raising baseline and mid-range prices while keeping the lowest and highest tiers unchanged. We saw this recently with theme park ticket increases, and now we also see it reflected in the Halloween party prices. I imagine we will see a similar trend with Mickey’s Very-Merry-Christmas Party.
