Hours Compared To a 1-Day Ticket
On a typical day, Magic Kingdom hours are 9am-10pm (will vary by season), that is 13 hours of potential park time.

Is the Party Worth it?
This answer will be subjective and vary by guest. However, in my opinion, it is worth it to experience at least once!
The value of the party ticket is in the party exclusives. Especially if you have been to Disney World multiple times, this is a whole-new-way to experience Magic Kingdom Park.
How to get the most Value:
Skip a park ticket for that day. Instead, enjoy a relaxing morning by the pool until it is time to get ready. Or head to Disney Springs for the morning and lunch before getting ready for the party. By skipping a park day and enjoying a free morning activity, it will offset the party ticket cost.
Purchase an earlier date. Earlier party nights are less expensive than later dates leading up to Halloween night. All party dates have the same offerings.
Dress up as a group! Consider dressing up as a group or your favorite Disney character to enhance your and each party goers experience. Most guests do dress up and it is fun to see others costume ideas!
Plan out a handful of must-dos on your list. It will be impossible to do it all, between entertainment, character interactions, rides and more. It will be a whirlwind of a night, of the best kind!
