FIRST LOOK at Disney’s Exclusive Oogie Boogie Bash Parade

The most POPULAR Disney Halloween party is HEREOogie Boogie Bash is BACK for 2023! Now, everyone stop clowning around, and let’s get down to business. What kind of entertainment can you expect at this year’s event? 

LOVE the Costume

If you’re unfamiliar, Oogie Boogie Bash is a separately ticketed Halloween event that takes place after Disney California Adventure closes to day guests. The event runs on select nights in September and October in Disney California Adventure at Disneyland Resort.

If you’re interested in attending, you’ll have to start prepping for 2024; tickets for the event this year are completely sold out. Fear not — we’re here to show you EVERYTHING you can experience at Oogie Boogie Bash so you can decide if the party is right for you! Now, let’s take a look at all the entertainment available during Oogie Boogie Bash.

Immersive Treat Trails

This may be one of the most POPULAR things you can do at the event! The Immersive Treat Trails take you through an immersive line to hook you up with some CANDY (we’re talking Skittles, M&M’s, and more!). As you make your way through the trail, you’ll encounter a character! We’ve seen some RARE characters during past events, and this year is no exception!

Frightfully Fun Parade

No Disney Halloween party is complete without a parade! The beloved Frightfully Fun Parade is back this year! During our visit, the parade was offered twice, once at 7:50PM and again at 10:05PM. Be sure to check the times during your party night, as entertainment is subject to change.

Frightfully Fun Parade

Mickey and Minnie kick off the parade in their special Halloween outfits. How cute are they?!

After those two, be on the lookout for Jack and Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas.

There are plenty of fun characters to spot during this parade!

The first parade is usually a little bit more crowded, but you’ll probably want to grab a spot to watch the parade a few minutes early for either showing.

It’s Ursula!

One of the best parts of the parade is when you get to see all the villains! There are some RARE characters that you’ll only see during this show.

This parade is one of the highlights of the night — we highly recommend it!

Mickey’s Trick and Treat

In between all the fun character interactions you may experience, you can also check out the Mickey’s Trick and Treat stage show! During the show, Mickey and Minnie (plus Goofy and Donald) meet their friend Parker, who makes a special potion. We won’t spoil the show, but let’s just say some interesting things happen from there…

On opening night, the show was offered at 6PM, 6:45PM, 7:30PM, 8:45PM, and 9:30PM, but showtimes are subject to change.

It’s Donald Duck!

During the show, you’ll probably spot a few of Mickey’s friends!

This is a great activity for kids and adults alike!

Villains Grove

Looking for another POPULAR experience? Villains Grove lives in the Reedwood Creek Challenge Trail. Some infamous Disney villains hijacked the spot and transformed it into an enchanted grove. There is special lighting, spooky sounds, and more to make this a super immersive experience.
