Did anyone happen to try to get a last minute (day of) ticket? If so, details? We need one more ticket for my CM daughter that was able to trade shifts to attend with us, but now can't get a ticket
I saw in another thread, someone shared that in the past there have been positive reports of being able to get a ticket for someone where the rest of their party already has tickets. YMMV but it seems they try to make it work in those circumstances.Did anyone happen to try to get a last minute (day of) ticket? If so, details?

Historically when adding to an existing party, you are eligible to purchase tickets day off, even to sold out parties. Reported in the past (not reported in 2023 so far) you may be eligible to add up to 50% of your party, on the day of your party.Did anyone happen to try to get a last minute (day of) ticket?

Yes.I saw in another thread, someone shared that in the past there have been positive reports of being able to get a ticket for someone where the rest of their party already has tickets. YMMV but it seems they try to make it work in those circumstances.
I mentioned up thread but I got there at 4:20 and there were 15 ish people ahead at that point. Some groups came together so that number got bigger. I’m not sure how people got from the nearest wristband place to there that quick but it is what it isWhat time does the line start for the Seven Dwarfs? Do they let people queue up at 4:00?
Space when it was working was pretty good I found between the music and being all in the dark. You really didn’t know what to expect next. Glad I got a ride on it before it went downAre there ride overlays this year? Any reports on the allergy candy situation would also be very much appreciated! Thanks!
Oh it was definitely crowded. Doable but crowded.For those mentioning the sold out night still looked doable/uncrowded…It’s a trap lol.
I’m not getting excited about possibility of lower crowds. IMO it was a fluke, due to the extreme temperature. No way would Disney leave money on the table via selling less tix to the event.
Tron May have pulled a small contingent of people off the street. Guess we’ll
Know for sure after a few more event reports
The live stream I watched was positioned for the first parade by the train station. They kept commenting on both the lower crowds & the extreme heat
believe they were locals; would think acclimated to the weather. It could’ve easily caused many to throw in the towel.
Appeared to be many adults heading out before the 1st parade. While there is a contingent of people (stroller brigade) that do leave earlier, haven’t observed a flood of people heading out en masse until after the FW
Yeah someone else said it but SM went down. I hopped on the Peoplemover to watch the fireworks. When we went through I saw a CM walking the track. Which says to me whatever caused it to go down wasn’t something quick. Not surprised to hear it stayed down.Live characters are out front and in the queue. Not on the actual attraction this year.
There are party overlays for Teacups, Space and Monsters Inc Laugh Floor. That being said, my understanding is that Space was down the entire night. The vlog I followed rode the People Mover around 11PM and showed fully lit SM.
We stayed there from 5:30-6:01.
Everyone we could see were trying for Tron and everyone surrounding us got it. We think the boarding groups started at 128? We were 159 (called at maybe 7:45ish?? I am so sorry I didn’t really pay attention to times!). People around us at Cosmic Rays got 140 and another group was 181.

Yes.
Might be worth checking with (reputable) ticket resellers too. I noticed that the ticket reseller I use still has some tickets left for some of the parties that are sold out on the Disney website - I'm guessing they probably have a certain allocation of tickets they can sell...Did anyone happen to try to get a last minute (day of) ticket?

Several people have stated that they really were all gone within 30 seconds. I am a veteran of 6:55AM wakeups and VQs — sometimes they go within 10 seconds — so if you don’t click through each screen almost immediately you get shut out. I am surprised they are doing it that way at the Halloween party (and it’s going in less than a minute). Suggests to me they sold waaaaay more tickets than they used to and I’m already lowering our expectations for our party next month.I tried right at 6 and didn't get in a boarding group. This was my first time ever trying to get one and I assume I did something wrong but I don't know what. Or they really were all gone within 30 seconds
Can you share where is it at before the parade? Is it a meet or is he just roaming around? ThanksYes, he’s out before the parade.
Awe, sure! Our Toy Story gang, at the beginning of the party, then walking out at midnight, and when I found my first ever “celebrity” at the parks!Ariel620, would love to see a pic of your crew!
Does a dance routine in the hub right before parade.Can you share where is it at before the parade? Is it a meet or is he just roaming around? Thanks
Incredibles/Toy Story was replaced by Ursula/Cruella/Queen of Hearts vignettes in the “good to be bad” segment before the skeleton band float… I noticed big bad wolf and hyenas were gone from good to be bad unit idk if other characters were as wellIn watching some of the vlogs, I noticed the Pixar floats (except Vanellope) weren't in the parade last night. Any chance they'll add them back on future nights or do the parades typically stay the same for the entire season?
7:00 pmWhat time does the actual trick or treating start, my grandsons are so excited to trick or treat in the Magic Kingdom.
Help! We dragged our feet picking our dates and now all our options are sold out UCT still has one of our dates showing as available but when I click 'place order' I get the dreaded 'this date is no longer available, please select another date'. Is there any other reseller we can check??Interestingly, it seems like the ticket reseller I use still has tickets for 15 September despite it being sold out on the WDW website. I'm guessing they probably have some allocation of tickets to resell or similar and still have tickets left...
