Check out Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party
Walt Disney World is saying “Let It Go” to it’s Maelstrom ride at the Norway pavilion in EPCOT. What will be replacing it is a ride inspired by the ever-popular “Frozen” movie. The new attraction will take guests to the fictional land of Arendelle and recreate moments and music from the film. The pavilion will include an area where guests can meet the movie’s sister characters Anna and Elsa.
“Frozen” themes will also be a major part of holiday activities at the Magic Kingdom Park this year. Cinderella Castle will turn into an ice palace nightly starting in early November, and Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade will include appearances by Anna, Elsa and other “Frozen” characters including Kristoff and Olaf.
Randy Faith and the Magic Kingdom dot com Speaking of Halloween fun, ‘Mahaloween Luau’ is coming to Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar at the Disneyland Hotel on September 29. 100 guests per seating will get to enjoy this kooky seasonal party that includes beverages and eats, live music and insider info with Imagineers and Disney cast members. Guests will also receive a special edition glass available only at the event. (A note to collectors: the second edition of the Zombie souvenir glass will also be available for purchase at the event, before it is available to the public the next day.)
There are 4 hours to choose from : 3-4 p.m., [4:30]-5:30 p.m., 6-7 p.m. or [7:30]-8:30 p.m. The fun starts on the patio with appetizers and two drink tickets (beer, wine, Zombie Drink or Polynesian Punch). Then you’ll move inside for live entertainment and a Disney tiki presentation by Walt Disney Imagineering. You’ll also have a chance to meet some of Disney’s concept artists and other special guests. When the party ends, you’ll get a Jungle River Cruise Expedition Bag that includes a Trader Sam panama hat, a boxed special-edition “Mahaloween Luau” glass (with a dated stamp), a Trader Sam print on canvas, and a coupon good for 20 percent off at the adjacent Tangaroa Terrace. Guests also can purchase up to two additional second-edition Zombie souvenir glasses. Cost is $125 per person, including tax and tip. To reserve your spot, call 714-781-DINE
