Disneyland has announced the 2026 schedule for the popular after-hours Oogie Boogie Bash, though they have yet to release pricing or registration details. The event expands to 33 nights in 2026, two more than in 2025.
We expect Inspire Magic Key holders will have the first chance to purchase tickets whenever they do go on sale, followed by all Magic Key holders and then the general public.
Tickets to the 2025 event ranged from $139 to $199 per person, depending on which event you attend. This was only a modest increase from 2024, and we hope there is just a small increase this year as well. For those who want to splurge, Disney will likely offer a VIP Tour with admission to Oogie Boogie Bash at a (much higher) extra cost.
2026 dates:
- Aug. 18, 20, 23, 25, 27, 30
- Sept. 1, 3, 6, 8, 10, 13, 15, 17, 20, 22, 24, 27, 29
- Oct. 1, 4, 6, 8, 11, 13, 15, 18, 20, 22, 25, 27, 29, 31
What’s brewing for 2026?
When Disney expanded the event to 31 nights in 2025, we asked if there were not some upgrade planned to help lure repeat visitors to the event. With all but one event night selling out last year, it’s clear there is plenty of demand for the popular event, even without any big changes or upgrades.
That doesn’t mean it’s not time for a refresh. The Walt Disney World event has the fantastic “Boo to You!” Halloween parade, the hit Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular stage show, and event-exclusive Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular fireworks show.
By comparison, Oooge Boogie Bash has a much smaller parade, no stage show, and the Halloween fireworks are presented over at Disneyland during normal operating hours. Of course, Oogie Boogie Bash also has the interactive treat trails with close encounters with Disney Villains, some rarely seen outside of the event. The California event also has the Villains Grove walk-through.
In 2024 Disney surveyed guests who had attended Oogie Boogie Bash, and asked about possible additions to the event. The survey, which was shared to a Facebook group for Magic Key holders, included options like a haunted maze, stage shows based on Hocus Pocus or The Nightmare Before Christmas, more Halloween-themed shows, parades or fireworks, and additional ride overlays.
None of that materialized in 2025, but we’re still hopeful that Disney will add some extra magic to the event.
