Disney Halloween Festival is announced at Disneyland Paris from September 26 to November 1, 2026. The programme includes the return of Mickey’s Halloween Celebration cavalcade, refreshed decorations in Disneyland Park and, on October 31, a special evening scheduled to run until 11 p.m.

A season from September 26 to November 1

According to Disneyland Paris News, the festival is set to bring visitors together around Disney villains and Disney characters, some of whom will wear new seasonal outfits. Mickey’s Halloween Celebration cavalcade is also announced to return to the heart of Disneyland Park.

The announced decorations will stretch from Main Street, U.S.A. to the foot of Sleeping Beauty Castle. Disney plans a new musical score, around forty new pumpkins, 170 candles featuring Mickey and his friends, as well as Victorian-inspired garlands.

Extended programming on October 31

For Halloween, on October 31, Disneyland Paris announces a special programme until 11 p.m. It is set to include exclusive character meet-and-greets, a unique pyrotechnic show and treats offered by M&M’S, the season’s official partner. According to the announcement, it is also the only occasion of the year when visitors of all ages will be able to come to the park in costume.

Aiming for October 31? Get your costume out: it is the only day of the year when visitors of all ages, adults included, can come to the park dressed up, and the party runs until 11 p.m. The 31st falls on a Saturday this year, so expect what will probably be one of the busiest days of the autumn.

Attractions woven into the Halloween atmosphere

The announcement says visitors will be able to extend the experience on some attractions, with immersive storytelling blending suspense, mystery and adventure.

In short: the festival lasts five weeks, but the big Halloween night, with a fireworks show and costumes for everyone, happens only on October 31. Decorations and cavalcade on a weekday, or the big Saturday-night party: your call.
