Here’s a round-up of what we know so far about two of the most beloved pieces of entertainment expected to return for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party 2026 at the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World in Florida. Both the Sanderson Sisters’ wickedly fun stage show Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular and the fan-favourite Mickey’s Boo-to-You Halloween Parade appear to be confirmed, giving Halloween fans plenty to get excited about this autumn.
Disney has posted casting notices for performers for both offerings, giving us an early look at what’s coming as part of the Halloween Party entertainment lineup. For Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular, auditions are open for singers and dancers to play iconic roles including the Sanderson Sisters themselves. The notes specify submission deadlines in March 2026 and indicate the show’s production season will run through August to October, which is exactly when the Halloween Party typically takes place. This spellbinding performance sees the three sisters from Hocus Pocus return to Cinderella Castle with a cabal of Disney villains for a stage show filled with music, magic and humorous mayhem.
Meanwhile, a separate casting call has opened for flag corps performers for Mickey’s Boo-to-You Halloween Parade, underscoring that this beloved procession is also set to march again in 2026. This parade has long been one of the highlights of the night, kicking off with the eerie ride of the Headless Horseman and winding through Magic Kingdom with floats featuring costumed Disney characters, gravediggers, Hitchhiking Ghosts and classic tunes. It’s a visual feast that sets the mood for the evening’s festivities.
Both of these entertainment offerings have been staples of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party for years and are part of what makes the event special. Fans often plan their trips around seeing the Sanderson Sisters’ antics at Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular and securing a good viewing spot for Boo-to-You. Even before any official dates have been published for the 2026 party itself, casting calls like these are strong signals that Disney intends to bring back these traditions for another season of trick-or-treating, costumes, and spook-tacular fun at Magic Kingdom.
As always with these early confirmations, more details about schedules, ticket sales and additional entertainment offerings are likely to follow from Disney in the coming months. For fans of Halloween at Walt Disney World, though, the return of these two marquee shows is an exciting first glimpse at what’s in store for 2026.
