food IS a theme park
Oogie Boogie Bash has officially begun at Disney California Adventure! This after-hours event is a full night of Halloween fun with special snacks and all of your favorite villains.
Halloween at Disney California Adventure
We’re here celebrating the first night of this festive party and can’t wait to share it all with you! And, speaking of your favorite villains, we met two additions to this year’s event — and let’s just say things are getting very spooky out there.
Halloween time is in full swing at Disney World! Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party officially kicked off on August 15th, and the event runs on select nights through October 31st. In addition to trick-or-treating, character meet and greets, and special entertainment, you can also grab a variety of treats throughout Magic Kingdom.
Not-So-Poison Apple Doughnuts
There are more than 45 exclusive Halloween-themed treats to try, and we want to make sure you spend your party time the best way possible. So, we are trying the exclusive treats and bringing you along with us! Our next stop is The Friar’s Nook, so let’s get going.
We’re getting spooky at the Magic Kingdom! If you’ve ever been to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, you might have stopped to watch some of the incredible entertainment, like the fireworks show.
Should you snag a seat at the dessert party?
While the fireworks show, Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular, is available with your party ticket, you can upgrade to a special experience to take your fireworks viewing to the next level. Come join us for Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular Dessert Party at Tomorrowland Terrace in Magic Kingdom!
A BRAND-NEW lounge is opening in Disney World soon! We have been eagerly awaiting the grand opening of The Beak and Barrel on August 29th, 2025. However, it has been rough seas for reservations for this highly anticipated tavern themed to the classic Pirates of the Caribbean attraction.

Reservations were initially supposed to open on August 14th, but the reservation system crashed, and we spent most of the day hoping we could get in. Later in the day, though, Disney confirmed that reservations would not be opening on August 14th as expected and instead would open during the week of August 18th. A bit vague, but now we know EXACTLY when reservations will be opening for The Beak and Barrel!
We’re back at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party trying MORE of the special treats at the party!
We’re back at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!
This time, we’re headed over to Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies to check out the new ice cream treat. This spot usually doesn’t stand out to us, but let’s just say that this treat NEEDS to be on the menu 24/7, because it’s better than anything we’ve ever had here!
Boo…to YOU! Boo to you, and you, and you, and you…Happy Halloween! We are back at Magic Kingdom for even more Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party fun. Of course, that also means we are trying out even more food, so you know what items are a must-get and what items you might want to skip.
Not a Poisoned Apple Slushy
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is a separately ticketed event that happens on select evenings through October 31st. This family-friendly Halloween event features trick-or-treating, rare character meet and greets, exclusive entertainment, and over 45 themed treats you can grab. Let’s head over to Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe for a party-exclusive item!
Disneyland’s Oogie Boogie Bash is here!
Oogie Boogie Bash
The special ticketed event in Disney California Adventure is easily one of the most popular Disney events of the year! It sells out quickly each year, and this year was no different! The event has special characters, exclusive snacks, limited-time entertainment, and more. Before we head into this year’s party, we gotta check out the full Oogie Boogie Bash map!
If there’s one place that knows how to get into the Halloween spirit, it’s Disneyland Resort! From Mickey pumpkins everywhere, orange garland lining buildings, and fall snacks at every corner, Halloween is one of the best seasons at Disneyland.
Gotta pay a visit to the boogie man!
One way to celebrate that is at the Oogie Boogie Bash at Disney California Adventure! This after-hours event is a full night of Halloween fun with special snacks and all of your favorite villains. We’re here for the 2025 year, so come with us and get your spooky on.
Disneyland’s 70th Anniversary celebration is still in full swing, and we’re loving checking out all the new snacks and drinks around the resort.

All the fun treats aren’t only found in Disneyland, though, because there are also loads of delicious options over in Disney California Adventure you don’t want to miss! In fact, you may overlook Hollywood Lounge and its offerings, but we’re here to tell you that giving these 70th Anniversary items a chance is a great option.
If you’re looking to add a little star power to your meal at Disney World, there’s one particular restaurant that rolls out the red carpet for a dining experience that’s equal parts whimsical and delicious. From the moment you step inside this glitzy, retro-inspired restaurant, you’re transported into a world where some of your favorite seasonal characters come to life—right at your table. I’ve been dining at Disney World character meals for a decade and for me, this is not just a meal—it’s a performance, a photo op, and a memory in the making all in one.
