2026 NOT SO SCARY MILITARY TICKETS??
Military tickets are available now!!
Will there be military tickets for Not So Scary this year?? Yes, there will!! And this year, there’s no waiting for details. In a surprising move, WDW is offering military discounts for most nights of the party this year (everything except for Halloween – and Halloween tickets are ONLY sold through Disney). However, they’re nowhere near the discounts available in the past – the biggest advantage is that the tickets are tax-free.

To take advantage of these discounts, which are available only to active, reserve, retired, and 100% disabled (with DAVPRM code) military members, the ID holder/spouse must purchase tickets in person at Shades of Green or via email at tickets@shadesofgreenresort.zendesk.com. All tickets purchased at Shades of Green, whether they’re party tickets, Military Salute tickets, Stars and Stripes tickets, or MYW tickets, are tax-free. And now for the pricing, like regular party tickets, pricing is dependent on the party date:
Adult $117.50/Child (3-9) $107.25: 8/11, 8/14
Adult $127/Child (3-9) $117.50: 8/18,

MICKEY’S NOT SO SCARY HALLOWEEN PARTY OFFERINGS
The fan-favorite fireworks and the “Boo to You” parade will both be back! This definitely isn’t the scaled-back Disney After Hours BOO BASH of the pandemic, but rather the full Mickey’s Not-So-Scary of previous years. There will be:
- The Boo to You parade features villains, ghouls, and other characters and happens twice per night! As always, the Headless Horseman will kick off the parade, but, like in 2024, the first parade will start earlier, making it easier for families with young kids.

- More character sightings around the park than in past years
- Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular with everyone’s three favorite witches!
- The Not-So-Spooky Spectacular fireworks hosted by Jack Skellington

- Performances by the Cadaver Dans Barbershop Quartet in Frontierland
- Treat stops with lots of candy!
- Costumes are allowed for all guests.
- Over 20 attractions, including a Halloween twist at Mad Tea Party, Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor, and Space Mountain.
- Dance parties – including a brand new Masquerade with Stitch, Lilo, and Angel
- Guests can enter the park as early as 4pm and DO NOT NEED a separate Disney park reservation.
Will you be attending Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party this year? We try to go to MNSSHP every year for one of the early September parties, and we’re hoping to continue that tradition again this year!

That’s awesome they do a military discount on parties, I did not know that-
