Halloween celebrations may have been minimalat Walt Disney World last yearthanks to the pandemic, but in 2021, it’s coming back with a BOO!
On Friday, the Orlando theme park announced that they have several exciting new events and offerings planned for the spooky season, and they’re starting their celebrations early.
This Halloween, Magic Kingdom will be where most major celebrations will take place, as the park will host a brand new event called the “Disney After Hours Boo Bash,” instead of the typical (less Covid-friendly) Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Running on select nights from August 10th through October 31st, Boo Bash will be a three-hour spectacle that takes place after the park closes, with plenty of music, decorations, dressed-up characters and more thrills.
According to a representative from the park, guests young and old will be able to “dress in costume for the occasion and get their fill of Halloween candy, exclusive culinary offerings, spooktacular entertainment, favorite attractions and more.”

And for those who can’t wait until fall, Disney is bringing Halloween to the people early this year — half a year early, to be exact! — with a variety of virtual and in-park events sure to get you ready for the frights and sights.
