Halloween is six months away, but that isn’t stopping Disney from unveiling its parks’ spooky fall events. Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party will be back at Disney World and Disneyland is getting in on the Halloween fun with its Oogie Boogie Bash.

Thrillist reports that Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party will take place from August to November for a total of 38 nights. The family-friendly event will be held on Tuesdays and Fridays starting August 1. Come September, the event will be held on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays, except for the Sunday before Labor Day. To make up for this, the party will be pushed to Monday, September 4. In October, Thursdays will be added to the events weekly schedule as well as one Monday in the month, October 9. The last chance to get in on the Halloween fun will be November 1.

Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is a ticketed event. Prices range from $109 to $199 depending on the night you choose to attend. Tickets go on sale starting May 2. If you’re staying at certain Disney World Resort properties, you will be able to purchase tickets on-site starting April 27. More details are available on Disney World’s event page.

Disneyland’s Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween Party will have a slightly shorter run time through September and October for 24 nights. Details about the event have yet to be announced, but the party will go from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m.
