Seven of the 25 Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party nights at Disney World are sold out, and the cheapest night left is $194. We checked Disney’s calendar for every date still on sale.
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is selling out fast this year, and it hasn’t even started.
Disney World’s ticket calendar showed seven of the party’s 25 nights sold out on Monday, Oct. 12. That’s up from four when we reported on the sellouts Oct. 7.
The party runs on select nights from Nov. 8 to Dec. 22 at Magic Kingdom. Eighteen nights are still on sale, at $194 to $229 for anyone 10 and older, before tax.
Which Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party nights are sold out?
These seven, according to Disney’s ticket calendar:
Monday, Nov. 9
Thursday, Nov. 12
Tuesday, Nov. 17
Tuesday, Nov. 24, the week of Thanksgiving
Tuesday, Dec. 1
Sunday, Dec. 20
Tuesday, Dec. 22, the last party of the year
Notice anything? Four of the seven are Tuesdays. Only two Tuesday parties are left, Dec. 8 and Dec. 15.
Fridays are a different story. All six Friday parties are still on sale.
Dec. 1 was the latest to go, WDW News Today reported on Oct. 11.
Which party nights are still available, and how much do they cost?
Here’s Disney’s calendar on Oct. 12, grouped by price for ages 10 and up:
$194: Nov. 13, 15 and 19
$199: Nov. 8 (opening night) and Nov. 20
$209: Nov. 25
$214: Nov. 29, Dec. 3 and Dec. 6
$219: Nov. 27, Dec. 4, Dec. 8 and Dec. 10
$224: Dec. 11, 13 and 15
$229: Dec. 17 and 18
The two priciest nights left, Dec. 17 and 18, cost $35 more than the cheapest ones. Kids ages 3 to 9 pay $10 less, and kids under 3 don’t need a ticket.
One more thing we noticed. Disney’s party page still says tickets start at $189, but no night left on the calendar costs that little. The cheapest is $194.
For a family of four with two kids in the 3-to-9 range, that works out to $756 on a $194 night and $896 on a $229 night, before tax. That’s just for the party. Hotel and park tickets are extra.
Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club members can save $10 a ticket on select nights from Nov. 8 to 20 and Nov. 29 to Dec. 3, Disney says.
How do you get Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party tickets?
Tickets are sold online through Disney World, and each one is good for a single date.
The party runs 7 p.m. to midnight, but you can get into Magic Kingdom as early as 4 p.m. on your party date. You don’t need a separate park ticket or a park reservation.
Tickets are nonrefundable and nontransferable, so pick your night carefully. Disney also warns that tickets “may not be available for purchase on the day of the event (or earlier).”

Has Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party sold out before?
All the time. The party has sold out every night for the last four years, Disney Tourist Blog reported.
This year, Dec. 22 sold out on Oct. 1, more than 11 weeks before the party, and the first night to go was Nov. 24, on Sept. 28, Disney Tourist Blog reported.
Over at Hollywood Studios, Disney Jollywood Nights has already sold out its opening night, Nov. 7, which cost $179. Disney Tourist Blog called it the second-earliest opening-night sellout in the event’s history and tied it to this year’s additions, including holiday versions of Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster and Alien Swirling Saucers.
Every other Jollywood date was still available as of Oct. 11, the blog reported.
Is there a cheaper way to see Disney World at Christmas?
Yes, if you can skip the parade and fireworks.
Jingle Cruise comes back to Magic Kingdom on Nov. 3, BlogMickey reported, and it runs all day, not just during parties. Magic Kingdom’s holiday decorations go up for regular park guests too.
At EPCOT, dining packages for the Candlelight Processional go on sale Oct. 14. Disney Tourist Blog lists adult packages you can book ahead starting at $59.
What are some fun facts about Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party?
December has more parties than November. Disney scheduled 13 December nights and 12 in November.
