food IS a theme park
This past week was the start of spring break season at Disney World!
Cinderella Castle
Even before the week started, we had noticed that Park Pass availability for the week was filling up fast! Disney even extended park hours in anticipation of crowds. As the week progressed, we saw what might have been the busiest week at Disney World since the reopening!
Spring break has arrived, friends! If you’re packing your bags and heading to Disney World next week, you may already be well aware that spring break can draw some significant crowds to the four theme parks.
She’s gorgeous, we know.
Orlando International Airport is expecting heavy travel this spring break season, which could mean that Disney World will be the busiest it has been since the holidays! We have all of the latest information regarding next week’s park hours as well as the current (lack of) Disney Park Pass Reservation availability.
EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival started up on Wednesday, and it was pretty busy!
Flower and Garden
Now, that got us wondering. If the first day of an EPCOT festival is such a big draw, what do other parks look like? To answer that question, we’re taking a look at wait times and crowd levels around Disney World yesterday and on other festival kick-offs of the past!
We’re coming off a holiday weekend in Disney World!
Tower of Terror
Wait times have been on the rise for the last week. We anticipated this increase, and sure enough, the parks have been pretty crowded all weekend! Let’s take a look at what it was like today.
Happy New Year everyone and welcome to 2021 in Disney World!
Hollywood Studios
It’s still one of the busiest times of the year, with folks celebrating New Year’s and many on holiday breaks from work or school. So we’re taking a look at the average wait times in ALL FOUR PARKS! Let’s see how this week compared to last week, and which wait times were surprisingly low or high.
We’re kissing 2020 goodbye at Disney World today! It’s been a long year and we’re ready to move forward into 2021.
Cinderella Castle
Disney World is celebrating New Year’s Eve a little differently this year. The theme parks are closing before midnight for health and safety reasons. Guests are encouraged to ring in the new year from their resort where Disney will host special activities tonight. We’re heading into the parks to see what the crowds, wait times, and the overall vibe is like.
If you’ve been in Walt Disney World this week, you’ve surely noticed that the crowds are pretty hefty!
End of Line for Flight of Passage
We’ve seen crazy long lines for attractions, large groups of people everywhere we go, and even 3-hour waits for cookies! We expected things to be busy the week after Christmas, but now we’re beginning to understand just how crowded it could get, even with capacity limits. And the crowds aren’t going anywhere yet. Let’s take a look at the Park Pass availability for New Year’s Eve!
Having some post-holiday blues? Step inside Disney’s Animal Kingdom for a little pick-me-up!
Tree of Life Chameleon
It’s time to head into the theme park full of wild animals and wild rides! We headed inside to seek out new food, merchandise, and attraction updates. Come check out what’s new at Animal Kingdom!
Christmas has come and gone, but the holiday season isn’t over just yet!
EPCOT
As the crowds continue to make their way to Disney World for New Year’s to welcome the beginning of 2021, we’re giving you a look at the crowds we have spotted following Christmas Day in the parks!
Merry Christmas Eve, everybody! This time of year historically is the MOST crowded in Disney World, and we wanted to head into Magic Kingdom to see what 2020 would bring. With capacity in the parks limited to 35%, we knew the park wouldn’t feel as shoulder-to-shoulder packed as it has in previous years. But would crowds swell? How much?
Main Street Holiday Character Cavalcade
If you’re here to see what Walt Disney World crowds look like during the busiest week of the year, then we’ve got you covered! We saw really unpredictable crowd levels during Thanksgiving week and we saw really high crowds when the holiday celebrations first arrived in early November, so we weren’t entirely sure what to expect today. Let’s dive right in to some photos to see what crowd levels today are REALLY like!
