UPDATED December 5, 2024
The one and only Oogie Boogie — along with some of his fellow Disney Villains — hosts the Oogie Boogie Bash as part of Halloween Time in Disneyland Resort! This extra-ticket event will return on 31 select nights from August 17th – October 31st, 2025.
Guests are invited to wear costumes and experience Bash-exclusive entertainment along with access to the park’s attractions and MUCH more!
The Oogie Boogie Bash features interactive Trick-or-Treat Trails where guests will spot Villains along the way, Disney character sightings (sporting their own Halloween costumes), and “not-too-spooky” decorations (including effects transforming Carthay Circle’s Bell Tower). AND Bash-exclusive entertainment includes the Frightfully Fun Parade, and the Villains Grove maze filled with villainous scenes presented through lights, shadows, and sounds along the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail.
P.S. A few NEW ne’er-do-wells are joining Oogie Boogie and friends this year (or should we say foes?)…

Special Entertainment and Inclusions
Interactive Treat Trails
Throughout Disney California Adventure, there are Immersive Treat Trails to find Cast Members handing out Treat Bags (and, more importantly) CANDY the party guests! And when we say these Treat Trails are immersive, we mean it…
Simply look for the Treat Trail entrance markers around the park. (The treat trails are also designated in the Bash Guide Map with a black cauldron and you can find them in the Disneyland app.)
Don’t forget to say “Trick or Treat” for your goodies, courtesy of Mars Wrigley!
Again, the candy is only a fraction of the fun… you won’t BELIEVE all the Villains you’ll spot along the Treat Trail way. In 2024, there were 12 treat trails, and you could find the following villains and stops along the way:
- Yokai from Big Hero 6 (San Fransokyo Maker’s Market at San Fransokyo Square)
- Sid from Toy Story (Near Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff at Pixar Pier)
- Judge Doom (Near Soarin’ Around the World at Grizzly Peak)

- Agatha Harkness (Ancient Sanctum in Avengers Campus) — P.S.: She has a new outfit this year!
