“When will Disney get started promoting tickets for the 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash?” is a commonplace reader query at this time, particularly after Disneyland introduced dates for the Halloween birthday celebration. We’ll take a look at to reply to according to what we all know according to historic announcement dates, previous call for, and extra.
As with every of those speculative posts, we’ll get started by means of underscoring the truth that Madame Leota isn’t hired by means of this weblog, which is to mention that we don’t have a crystal ball. No person can provide you with a definitive solution about when Disneyland will unlock 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash – A Disney Halloween Birthday party tickets. The similar holds true for just about anything else that hasn’t been formally introduced, launched internally, or leaked.
So should you’re the type of one who thinks this sort of prognostication publish is a “waste of time,” then there’s not anything for you right here. Imagine as an alternative subscribing to our unfastened e-mail e-newsletter for fast indicators, which can supply you an replace when Disney publicizes the date that 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash tickets will cross on sale or there’s any other authentic replace. (Simply be warned–tickets will promote out FAST, so that you’ll need to be in a position to shop for instantly.) This publish simply makes an attempt to provide perception as to when that date will probably be according to previous precedent and adjustments for 2024 in reaction the above reader questions…
Whilst Disneyland hasn’t launched complete main points, we’ve got a lovely just right image of what this yr’s Halloween season will entail (see our complete 2024 Information to Halloween at Disneyland Hotel for the entirety past Oogie Boogie Bash), with spook season kicking off on August 23––the primary time ever it has ever kicked off that early, and necessarily two weeks previous than commonplace.
As is standard, the 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash gained’t get going till somewhat after the remainder of the Halloween Time festivities and a laugh. The excellent news–should you like the development, unhealthy information should you don’t–is that Oogie Boogie Bash additionally begins previous than ever and with a complete of 27 match dates for Halloween 2024, which is two extra nights than closing yr…
Oogie Boogie Bash – A Disney Halloween Birthday party will get started in August for the primary time within the Halloween birthday celebration’s historical past. This yr, the development will start on August 25 (as opposed to September 5 closing yr) and run thru October 31, 2024. The limited-capacity, one by one ticketed match will probably be hung on 27 nights from past due August thru October, including family-friendly a laugh for visitors of every age the chance all the way through Halloween Time. See our complete Information to the 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash – A Disney Halloween Birthday party for each and every unmarried date and all different main points.
As for when tickets will cross on sale, Disneyland has equipped no authentic get started date. Simply that they’ll supply extra main points “within the coming weeks” in regards to the match, together with when price ticket gross sales will get started. So right here’s the place our hypothesis starts, according to the price ticket gross sales for Disney California Journey’s Halloween birthday celebration every of the previous few years.
Remaining yr, Magic Key pre-sale tickets went on sale for closing yr’s Oogie Boogie Bash – A Disney Halloween Birthday party starting on June 27. Common public price ticket gross sales had been intended to start out on June 29 closing yr. Alternatively, technical difficulties necessarily driven that again for a few weeks till mid-July.
Alternatively, it’s value noting that Oogie Boogie Bash dates and main points weren’t even introduced till past due June closing yr, virtually precisely one week prior to pre-sales began.
This carefully parallels what came about in 2022, albeit with the authentic announcement coming roughly two weeks previous in mid-June of that yr. (In evaluating the years, that’s nonetheless over a month after the 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash dates had been introduced.)
Tickets went on sale for the 2022 Oogie Boogie Bash starting on June 28 as a pre-sale completely for Magic Key holders. On June 30, most of the people used to be ready to buy Oogie Boogie Bash tickets.
In 2022, there used to be additionally a multi-hour digital queue to buy tickets on each June 28 and June 30. It took us about 4 hours to buy our birthday celebration tickets on June 28. Some Magic Key holders had shorter waits, others reported longer instances. The queue additionally crashed a few times, and had problems with fee processing whilst we had been testing.
Some 2022 Oogie Boogie Bash nights offered out inside of days of occurring sale, and ALL dates had been long past by means of July 3, at which level tickets for Oogie Boogie Bash completely offered out.
Tickets went on sale later the former yr–on July 13, 2021. Alternatively, I don’t truly suppose that’s related as Disneyland had simply reopened and used to be racing to revive normalcy, which didn’t occur till mid-June. It’s frankly a small miracle that the Halloween birthday celebration came about that yr in any respect, it’s extra of an anomaly and doesn’t be offering perception or precedent. Nor do the 2019 or previous Halloween occasions.
Our absolute best wager is that 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash price ticket gross sales will get started no later than past due June, similar to closing yr and the yr prior to that. Alternatively, with the announcement date shifting ahead, so too may just the gross sales date. We for sure don’t be expecting gross sales to start out throughout the subsequent week, although. In truth, we’d be stunned if gross sales start in Might 2024 in any respect.
It’ll almost definitely occur in keeping with closing yr (and the yr prior to that), with a bit of luck minus all of the technical difficulties. For the reason that announcement did come over a month early, I wouldn’t be stunned if the gross sales dates moved ahead by means of a pair weeks.
However truly, there’s now not a lot sense of urgency–until there’s a really huge value building up, Disneyland could have 0 problems promoting out all dates of the 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash. It is a large a part of why Disneyland has at all times began gross sales of Oogie Boogie Bash tickets later than Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party at Walt Disney International–there’s no rush since each and every unmarried night time sells out each and every unmarried yr.
To that time, be expecting difficulties purchasing Oogie Boogie Bash tickets. To not scare you, however closing yr there used to be a multi-hour digital queue all the way through Magic Key presales, with all tickets all the way through that unique window promoting out prior to everybody in line had a possibility to shop for. The next week all the way through most of the people gross sales false get started, there used to be additionally a multi-hour digital queue–only a few folks had been ready to finish transactions prior to the queue closed because of technical difficulties.
Two weeks later, there used to be as soon as once more a digital queue for the second one try at normal public gross sales. Each unmarried night time of Oogie Boogie Bash offered out on that day, and prior to everybody had a possibility to shop for. We all know any individual who used to be in all 3 of the ones digital queues, losing 12+ hours within the procedure, who used to be close out of tickets totally. That’s vastly unhealthy success, however it did occur!
We predict this yr to move smoother as a result of how may just it now not?! (Well-known closing phrases.) Nonetheless, there will probably be multi-hour digital queues, of this a lot we’re sure. Simply with a bit of luck now not the technical difficulties…and possibly a tad much less call for? Or no less than somewhat extra provide thank you to two further nights!
As soon as once more, if you wish to be notified ASAP when Disney publicizes the gross sales date for tickets to the 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash, subscribe to our FREE e-mail e-newsletter for updates. Should you don’t do this, we extremely suggest visiting the Disneyland web site day by day for updates, as you’ll completely need to be in a position to buy tickets on day one when gross sales get started. Additionally once more, now not looking to scare you–simply looking to set life like expectancies after listening to from lots of readers in the previous few years who waited to buy and were given close out.
We will be able to indisputably be purchasing our 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash tickets ASAP, and strongly suggest you do the similar if you already know you wish to have to wait this yr’s match. Even though call for isn’t as sturdy this yr, the Halloween events will most probably promote out all the way through the primary week of gross sales at the newest. That’s par for the direction with Oogie Boogie Bash!
That’s why we had been hoping for extra birthday celebration nights and, in truth, are somewhat dissatisfied that Disneyland opted “handiest” for 27 nights of Oogie Boogie Bash. Sure, that’s probably the most ever…however it’s handiest 2 extra nights than closing yr regardless of the Halloween season being 2 weeks longer. Our prediction used to be 30 nights of Oogie Boogie Bash in August, September and October 2024.
We additionally stated that it wouldn’t wonder us if there are as many as 33 events. In taking a look on the calendar, it appeared like 33 nights had been conceivable in the event that they truly stretched and stuffed in additional dates all the way through the low season. As an alternative, they added August nights however took a random week-long damage between the September 3 and 10 events, which is senseless to me.
Having 30+ events may just’ve truly helped relieve probably the most power at the high-demand match. It additionally turns out very possible all the way through the past due August and early September low season. I’m stunned Disneyland didn’t get extra competitive on that finish of the calendar!
In the end, we’re taking a look ahead to the 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash…assuming we’re ready to attain tickets! We’ve truly loved the primary few years of this Halloween Birthday party, and are nonetheless hoping that Disneyland will proceed to construct on that luck and scale it up. However with closing yr promoting out in document time–and almost definitely sufficient call for to promote out all the match 2 to three instances over–there almost definitely isn’t a ton of incentive so as to add the rest (until it will increase potential, through which case…).
In our view, Oogie Boogie Bash is superb–however nonetheless falls quick as in comparison to Mickey’s No longer So Frightening Halloween Birthday party in each and every regard with the exception of characters (which might be very, excellent at Oogie Boogie Bash). Specifically, fleshing out the parade and including yet another piece of cornerstone leisure–preferably, a degree display or any other new Halloween version of International of Colour–would truly assist carry the development. Alternatively, there’s additionally the truth that Disneyland does extra for Halloween as an entire, and maximum of this is integrated in common admission–so Oogie Boogie Bash and Halloween as an entire at Disneyland Hotel is lovely just right, all issues regarded as!
