food IS a theme park
It’s the video people ask us to make EVERY year, answering the BIGGEST Disney World question of them all…will 2025 FINALLY be the summer we’ll see an EMPTY Disney World?

We’ve got the DATA and we’re ready to SPILL ALL, today on DFB Guide.
Today will be great — and it’s all because the 2025 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival has begun!
2025 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival
This year’s festival runs from March 5th through June 2nd, 2025, and this year marks the 30th Anniversary of this beloved event! We’re making our way around the festival, checking out all the incredible topiaries, entertainment, merchandise, and of course — food! But, oddly enough, we’re not the only ones who decided to show up to the first day of the festival — who would have thought?!
When you’re in Disney World, you’re there along with TONS of other families and groups also trying to have a magical vacation.
Cinderella Castle
That means that you’ll come in contact with strangers in lines, around restaurants, or just while you’re walking around, and sometimes you’ll hear them say some…interesting things. Whether that’s because you hear the middle of a conversation or you hear a whole conversation that has you scratching your head, we’ve overheard some interesting things in Magic Kingdom that we feel we have to share.

It’s Christmas time in Disney World!

It’s no secret that the crowds flock to Disney World during this time of year. The decorations, special snacks, and after hours events are hard to resist so we get it. How does Christmas Day compare to the entire holiday season? Let’s check out how the parks are looking!
We LOVE visiting each and every single Disney Park…but one, in particular, has tested our patience over the years.
Hollywood Studios
For many, Disney’s Hollywood Studios is the BEST theme park at Walt Disney World. It’s got some of Disney World’s most innovative attractions and lots of fun entertainment, so the sentiment makes plenty of sense. We really do enjoy visiting Hollywood Studios…most of the time. There are times, however, when this Hollywood-themed theme park is too cringey to handle.
This weekend is going to be a BUSY one at Magic Kingdom!
Main Street U.S.A. Train Station
It can be tough to predict how busy a Disney World theme park will be on any given day, but there are a few indicators that the experts know to watch for. For example, holidays or days when many people have work and school off are almost always very busy. Also, if park passes are sold out for Annual Passholders and other select ticket holders, you know that lots of people are planning to visit the parks. On one day this week, both of those are true!

There are quite a few times when you’ll want to avoid Disney World if you’re averse to crowds!
We LOVE it when the parks are this chill!
There are some obvious answers, including major holidays like Christmas and Thanksgiving, as well as holiday weekends, Spring Break season, and the summer. But on top of that, Disney World can get busy with various rogue events, like runDisney races or cheerleading competitions. And now, we’ve got a warning about an upcoming weekend!
Crowds in Disney World surge during expected times like holidays, spring break, and summer, but there are other times of the year you may be caught off guard by the crowds.
Advent Health Arena in ESPN Wide World of Sports
Many times this is due to special events happening somewhere in the resort, such as runDisney events around the parks, but many large sports competition companies also host their yearly events at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports complex and/or Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort & Convention Center, drawing in massive crowds. Two of those events are coming up soon and are happening on THE SAME weekend.
It’s always a good day to go to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, right? While any day in Disney World is probably gonna be more exciting than a day spent NOT in Disney World, there are definitely some “good,” “better,” and “best” days to visit Hollywood Studios.

If you’re planning your Disney vacation right now, be sure to mark down these days so that you remember to AVOID the crowd chaos that we’re expecting in the park! [Read more…]
If you’re planning to visit Disney World next weekend, be prepared for some potential crowd problems.
Main Street, U.S.A.
One of runDisney’s popular annual events will take place at the Walt Disney World Resort from April 18th through the 21st. The Springtime Surprise Weekend is chock full of great moments for those participating. However, like any runDisney event, it can lead to some headaches for those simply visiting the resort while it’s happening.
