Tickets are extremely limited, and we recommend buying them sooner rather than later. There is a chance that dates will sell out quickly, especially if they are closer to the holidays, and they might not be available the day of the event.

Unlike certain paid events, you do not need an additional theme park ticket or reservation to attend Mickey’s Very Mery Christmas Party.
