Disney's Pirate and Princess Party, also known as Mickey's Pirate and Princess Party was a hard-ticketed (separate admission) event held at the Magic Kingdom theme park at the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida outside Orlando. This event requires an additional ticket along with the ticket to enter the Magic Kingdom. Prices range from $48.94 to $31.90 depending on the participants age and how far in advance the ticket is bought. The Pirate and Princess Party event was held in Spring 2007, throughout the months as early as January through June, and were held again during August and September 2007.
The Pirate and Princess Party combined two of The Walt Disney Company's franchises, including the Disney Princess line, Peter Pan, and Pirates of the Caribbean. There were plans to hold more of them during Winter 2008, but was ultimately cancelled. A smaller version of the event was also planned for Disneyland Paris Resort in 2011, but was cancelled.
