When it comes to Walt Disney World, I always look on the bright side, especially this year. Sure, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party dates have been canceled, but that doesn’t mean you still can’t celebrate! From food to cavalcades to costumes (big changes!), here’s what you need to know about Disney Halloween 2020 at Magic Kingdom!
Halloween is my favorite season. Yep, you read that right: it’s not just a one-day holiday for my family – we start celebrating in late August. So the announcement from Walt Disney World today regarding Magic Kingdom’s Halloween came at the perfect time. Here’s what you need to know about celebrating Halloween at Disney World this year.
Disney Halloween 2020 Dates
Magic Kingdom will be celebrating Halloween from September 15-October 31. That’s a month and a half to get our fun on.
Disney Halloween 2020: Costumes at Magic Kingdom
not only will there be characters in Halloween costumes (Chip ‘n’ Dale in Frontierland has been confirmed), we’ll be looking for characters in their favorite Halloween costumes riding the horse-drawn trolley along Main Street U.S.A.
As for guests, in the past we’ve only been able to dress up during a Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. But this year, THIS YEAR, the policy has changed. Sure, we still need to wear approved face masks in addition to our costumes, so start thinking about what you want to wear:
“For the first time guests of all ages can wear your funniest, Disney-ist, most creative costumes during Magic Kingdom Park regular operating hours from Sept. 15 to Oct. 31.
As an important reminder, costume masks are not permitted for adults; only children younger than 14 years old are permitted to wear costume masks. In addition, all guests are required to wear approved face coverings during their visit. Before you arrive, check our Know Before You Go page and Costume Guidelines.”
Disney Halloween 2020: Magic Kingdom Character Cavalcade
Yep! One, for sure, has been confirmed: a Halloween-themed cavalcade with Mickey, Minnie, Pluto and pals wearing their favorite Halloween costumes.
