Disney World Guests Sell Out Pricey Magic Kingdom Event This November

Holiday planners, it’s time to check your calendars. With Sunday, November 29, now sold out at Magic Kingdom, every November date for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is officially gone. That leaves just six nights on sale for the 2026 event at Walt Disney World Resort, and the window is narrowing fast.

The November 29 sellout follows closely on the heels of December 6, which disappeared from the calendar only a couple of days earlier. Disney has been clear that availability is limited across every date, and these back-to-back sellouts are a strong signal that the remaining nights won’t stick around for long.

Here are the dates still available at the time of publication: December 8, December 10, December 11, December 13, December 15, and December 17.

One detail Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club members will want to note: November 29 was the last party night eligible for the $10 membership discount on admission. None of the December dates carry that saving, which means the discount is no longer available for any remaining night this season. Members who were holding out for a deal will now be paying the same rate as everyone else.

So what does it cost? Across the 2026 season, party admission has ranged from $189 to $229, plus tax, depending on the date. The remaining December nights fall at the higher end of that scale. Adult tickets, which apply to guests aged 10 and up, run between $214 and $229, plus tax, while children aged 3 to 9 receive a $10 discount. Pricing and availability can shift, so we recommend checking the official Walt Disney World event page before you buy.

Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party runs on select nights from November 8 through December 22, 2026, and requires a separate ticket from standard theme park admission. The party officially runs from 7 p.m. to midnight, but party ticket holders can enter Magic Kingdom as early as 4 p.m. That gives you three extra hours to ride a few favorites, grab dinner, or stake out a parade spot before the holiday programming kicks off.

Once the party begins, Magic Kingdom transforms into a full-blown holiday celebration. Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade brings Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Santa Claus, and a lineup of familiar Disney friends through the park. Mickey’s Most Merriest Celebration returns as the party’s stage show, and Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks Show caps off the night with a festive display.

Beyond the headliners, partygoers can snack on complimentary cookies and hot cocoa at designated locations, meet holiday-themed characters around the park, and enjoy access to select attractions. Those extras are a big part of what makes the evening feel different from a typical day at Magic Kingdom.

Our advice? Don’t wait. With two dates selling out in a matter of days, the six remaining December nights are under real pressure, and Disney has cautioned that tickets may sell out before the event takes place. Anyone planning a Christmas visit to Walt Disney World should confirm party availability first, then lock in flights and hotels around the date they secure.

When he’s not thinking about the Magic Kingdom, Thomas is usually reading a book, becoming desperately obsessed with fictional characters, or baking something delicious (his favorite is chocolate cake -- to bake and to eat). He's a dreamer and grew up on Mulan saving the world, Jim Hawkins soaring through the stars, and Padmé Amidala fighting a Nexu. At the Parks, he loves to ride Everest, stroll down Main Street with an overstuffed pin lanyard around his neck, and eat as many Mickey-shaped ice creams as possible.
