Walt Disney World has launched pricing for the 2025 Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Get together, with a brand new document excessive as ticket costs break the $200 barrier (or actually, blow previous it) for the primary time ever. This covers the minimal and most prices, together with our commentary and date-by-date predictions as we await the discharge of tickets.
Though sticker shock is widespread with all issues Walt Disney World, this shouldn’t be shocking. Previous to this announcement, we supplied the next prediction in our 2025 Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Get together Information: Ticket costs for the 2025 Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Get together will doubtless vary from $125 to $225 relying upon the date. It’s really tough to foretell costs–they skyrocketed a number of years in the past, however haven’t gone up a lot since then regardless of all dates promoting out. So Walt Disney World may persist with the present vary ($119 to $199) or blow previous it, resetting the ground and ceiling (~$150 to $250).
The latter is prone to occur sooner or later, and it will be savvy of Walt Disney World to tear off the band-aid on controversial worth will increase abruptly versus incrementally over the course of some years. However I don’t know that 2025 would be the 12 months for an enormous worth improve. Disney is already contending with worth notion issues, and has been discounting closely as financial uncertainty and plummeting worldwide journey take a toll on park attendance and resort occupancy.
Because it seems, we had been proper and mistaken. The very first thing we had been mistaken about was the entire notion of financial uncertainty, a downturn in worldwide journey, and even Epic Universe’s opening impacting Walt Disney World. There are simply no indicators in any respect that any of that’s occurring, as defined in Walt Disney World Bookings Are Up for Remainder of 2025. Because the title suggests, bookings are outpacing final 12 months for the third and fourth quarters (and into fiscal 2026), based on Disney’s newest earnings name.
On a optimistic observe, fortunately the corporate did not reset each the ground and ceiling. As a substitute of elevating each the utmost and minimal, Walt Disney World solely touched the higher finish of the spectrum, with 2025 Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Get together ticket costs costing $119 to $229. Date by date costs haven’t but been launched–simply the vary. Listed below are extra pertinent timing & pricing particulars…

Nevertheless, there are a number of different issues conclusions we will draw in regards to the 2025 Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Get together, and predict costs for many dates inside $10 per ticket…
The primary prediction is that the distribution of costs will skew extra in direction of the upper finish of the spectrum. It is a fairly protected prediction as a result of it’s been true throughout the board with pricing.
Whilst Walt Disney World has preserved decrease base costs, the variety of dates accessible on the backside of the spectrum has been shrinking. This occurred final 12 months with MNSSHP costs–regardless that the utmost worth didn’t improve, ticket costs had been up on the entire almost 5% by advantage of fewer inexpensive dates and extra dates in October costing $179 to $199.
Throughout final 12 months’s Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Get together, there have been solely 5 dates that value the beginning worth of $119. All of them had been in August. There have been one other 7 dates that value $129 (the second-lowest worth level), all of which had been within the first half of September. If I needed to guess as we speak, I’d predict that there can be 4 or fewer dates costing $119, and 10 or fewer at or beneath $129.
For reference, listed below are final 12 months’s Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Get together ticket costs by date (grownup/youngsters):
- August 9 $149/$139
- August 13 $119/$109

As you possibly can see, costs obtained progressively costlier deeper into celebration season, except for the primary celebration as a result of a “blogger tax” and the October 4 and 11 events, as a result of being Fridays of fall break. If you wish to know what any date this 12 months will value, taking its corresponding evening final 12 months and including $10 is the most secure strategy. That’ll find yourself being mistaken for a lot of dates, but it surely needs to be a fairly shut approximation.
The largest exception to that rule would really like be the ultimate nights. If historical past had been to repeat itself, we might count on to kind of see comparable traits, with the ultimate 4 events on the finish of October 2025 all costing $229 per ticket. The “kind of” a part of that’s as a result of how shortly every date offered out can also be a related consideration.
Usually talking, Halloween evening nearly all the time sells out first. From there, often cheaper dates and the primary evening promote out someday in July, with extra dates promoting out in early August. As soon as content material from the primary evening of the occasion floods social media, there’s often a “run” on tickets for subsequent occasions–and several other extra events promote out round then.
This was true final 12 months, when October 31 offered out on Could 21–the earliest ever promote out!
The subsequent date didn’t promote out till July 19, with 4 extra August dates all promoting out in July. All the most cost-effective celebration dates had been among the many first to promote out, which isn’t an enormous shock since these are additionally the occasions that happen earliest. If something, the final 2 dates in August underperformed, solely promoting out ~2 weeks upfront of these dates.
Arguably the worst-performing dates had been the events that had been the weekend earlier than Halloween, together with the one non-school evening, all of which had been priced at $199 and none of which offered out till late September. In equity, these offered out additional upfront than the late August and early September dates, however they had been additionally the final to promote out–which means that procrastinating locals with an absence of decisions would’ve had the choice of those dates or nothing.
That is all to say that October 31, 2025 will, no doubt, value $229 per ticket. That’s not solely Halloween evening, but it surely’s a Friday evening in 2025. It wouldn’t shock me if, even on the $30 larger worth level, this nonetheless sells out in document time and is unavailable earlier than Could is over. (Not so daring prediction: no different dates promote out till no less than mid-July 2025.)
Actually, Walt Disney World may’ve in all probability priced October 31, 2025 at $250 or $275 and nonetheless had no points promoting out. The larger drawback would’ve been notion by way of articles like this one, social media complaints, and so on. (That’s arguably why Walt Disney World hasn’t been extra aggressive with MNSSHP and MVMCP worth will increase, regardless of demand very clearly supporting larger ticket prices.)
Sooner or later, I wouldn’t be stunned to see Walt Disney World make Halloween evening its personal separate factor, charging $300 or no matter, but additionally making that occasion distinctive ultimately in order to be excluded from the pricing chart. However that isn’t what’s occurring this 12 months, so it’s a bit irrelevant.
What I additionally wouldn’t be stunned to see occur is different dates in late October 2025 not break the $200 barrier.
Possibly that stretch will development the identical method as final 12 months, with the ultimate 4 events all costing the identical worth. However given how sluggish these different dates offered as contrasted with October 31–which is now a Friday this 12 months–I wouldn’t be stunned if Disney needs to provide it time earlier than breaking the $200 barrier with extra dates.
In the event that they do worth the October 24, 26, 28, 30 events at $229, then I additionally wouldn’t be stunned to see a number of of these dates not promote out. That’s a daring wager, and it’d be the primary time since 2019 that each date of a Halloween celebration didn’t promote out. Given how a lot phrase of mouth and FOMO are drivers of gross sales for Walt Disney World, that will not be a chance they’re keen to take.
Even so, you possibly can count on to pay extra for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Get together tickets in 2025 vs. 2024. The bottom fee is unchanged, which means no less than a few of these August dates may have similar year-over-year pricing and not value $10 greater than final 12 months.
Nevertheless, Walt Disney World is extraordinarily ‘environment friendly’ at worth will increase. That means that the majority of dates in September and October will value $10 greater than final 12 months. No matter what occurs with the variety of $229 nights (even when it’s simply October 31 that breaks the $200 barrier!), we absolutely count on one other 12 months of 5% or larger worth will increase as a complete.
