One of the popular after-hours events at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is one of the latest events to be canceled due to COVID-19.

The event usually begins in August and runs on select nights through early November. It gives families the chance to go trick-or-treating in the park, plus a parade, special character meet-and-greets and Halloween-themed fireworks. Kids and families get to dress up in costumes as they enjoy the park.

Not only did Disney announce ‘Halloween Party’ news, but also on the massively popular Epcot Food & Wine Festival.

The food-centric event go on, but with some changes. This year, it will be “A Taste of Epcot International Food and Wine Festival’ and will have a big change. The ‘Eat to the Beat Concert Series’ has been canceled in an effort to accommodate proper physical distancing. The event will kick off July 15th and run through the fall.

Here are some changes coming to Walt Disney World when it reopens in July.

A new reservation system
Share
You won't be able to walk up and buy tickets on a whim. A reservation system will prevent overcrowding during the early stages of the parks reopening.
Face Masks
Share
Parades
Share
At the start, there will be no parades through the parks.
Temperature Checks
Share
It's becoming common - just like at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Tampa, your entry will depend on you not having a fever.
Fireworks
Share
Fireworks draw packed crowds just like the parades, so to start, those won't happen either.

Q105’s Geno loves to be at Walt Disney World… Here are some of the sights from his 2020 preview!

Check out this view I had during my Q105 broadcast! Certainly beats the view I normally have in the studio of a parking lot!

Wow.
Share
.
We timed our ride PERFECTLY aboard the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train! Every time we turned a corner the fireworks went off above us!
Share
.
Forever in my top 5 ride list… the Aerosmith Rockin’ Rollercoaster at Hollywood Studios!
Share
.
Hanging out in the studio with Aerosmith
Share
.
Nothing beats Epcot at night.
Share
.
Sorry I’m not known for my patience. Couldn’t wait.
Share
.
Had some celebrity guests drop by during our “20 Magical Reasons” broadcast.
Share
.
Producer Coop and I designed this eyesore at #Epcot Test Track Monday. We went for as undesirable as possible. I think our concept is a masterpiece. We also decided to use Chinese for our text which in retrospect might have been a poor choice but I assume the loose translation is “hideous.”
Share
.
We were invited to sneak into the park a little early to check out the new Star Wars rides before guests came in!
Share
.
Only thing better than a Rice Krispy treat… a Darth Vader Rice Krispy treat.
Share
.
Baby Chewy!
Share
.
The Rise of the Resistance ride has chapters like in a book. It’s unlike any ride you’ve ever been on.
Share
.
Baby Yoda!
Share
.
You feel like you’re on the movie set.
Share
.
Walk like an Egyptian.
Share
.
My friend Rachel got me to go on the Toy Story coaster “Slinky Dog Dash”… it looked like a kids ride so I was skeptical, but it was really fun. The sound effects along the way are awesome.
Share
.
Surrounded by Figment
Share
.
Had 2 incredible meals at Homecomin’ Kitchen at Disney Springs. This burger and the fried chicken sandwich I had were good. But be sure to get the chips with extra topping, the cole slaw and sweet tea. Just excellent.
Share
.
Being held hostage by The First Order.
Share
.
Let’s go explore Kilimanjaro Safaris.
Share
.
Magestic!
Share
.
A very Florida scene!
Share
.
Always worth the wait if there is a line!
Share
.
I’m 6’4 so these are my spirit animals.
Share
.
Jungle Cruise at Animal Kingdom
Share
.
A must do every visit at Animal Kingdom.
Share
.
Avatar Flight of Passage is my new favorite. It’s stunning… it is an emotional experience – so beautiful. You just want to live there for hours.
Share
.
I’m a huge Muppets fan. Always have to see the 3D movie. Statler and Waldorf are my favorites.
Share
.
Star Wars Rise of the Resistance lives up to the hype. You are taken hostage on a ship with life size sets complete with Storm Troopers!
Share
.
We also got a preview of the first ever Mickey and Minnie ride opening in March. My tip: if you go, stand in the middle near the front when you watch the movie!
Share
.
So peaceful!
Share
.
Producer Coop and I got to check out a new Cirque Du Soleil production. Its the first time Disney and Cirque have collaborated.
Share
.
Epcot sunsets…
Share
.
Test Track at Epcot has some BEAUTIFUL cars to check out
Share
.
Walk like an Egyptian.
Share
.
I went to Disney so many times without ever going to Epcot. Now its my favorite.
Share
.
“Soarin’ Around the World” is another favorite ride – I loved the California version of the ride but the trip around the world was cool – especially climbing the Eiffel Tower!
Share
.
Do you see the Hidden Mickey?
Share
.
Just some of the decor at Topolino’s Terrace at Riviera Resort
Share
.
First ride of the trip: Space Mountain!
Share
.
Cheers! A drink to start the trip off at Enchanted Rose.
Share
.
Winter Florida style.
Share
.
We got to stay at the Grand Floridian just before they took the Christmas decor down. This tree was incredible.
