Art Festival & Crowds?

[NicholeB630]

We leave in 16 days whoooo hoooo. Feb 2-10 is supposed to be a really low time to go and I am hoping that is true. We have done second week of Dec and right after labor day in Sept. Both times were great as far as crowds and managing. We've never been to an epcot festival. I am excited to go to this one but curious if Epcot will then be packed? Or if its not to bad since its all spread out?

you would really only see an increase in crowds in WS on Friday evenings and Saturday and Sunday afternoons, as that is when more locals head out. Was there on Monday (MLK day) and it was not really even comparable to F&W, but you could tell that crowds were building as the day went on.

Have a fun trip!

Our first Epcot day is on the weekend. Its Sunday, we have breakfast at 1900 Park then my daughter is going to the Salon at the Grand and then were going straight to Epcot and doing the countries that day. Hopefully we wont get there much after 11. I hope its ok. It being Sunday I did worry but to late now to move everything around.

We're going for Pro Bowl weekend, so it'll be hard to gauge the crowds.

IMO, I think Festival of the Arts looks awesome, but is also very new. People book travel around Food & Wine and Flower & Garden; it SEEMS as though Festival of the Arts is a "hey we're here, may as well go check it out" kinda thing. So I'm not sure it'll be too crowded if you're travel dates are supposed to be a low time.

I'll be there on a Sunday and it's the one where most people may be planning to watch the Super Bowl, so I am not anticipating huge crowds.

Ohhhh thats a good point! Maybe more people will be at Super Bowl things! Whoop, though I haven't broken it to my husband yet that we def have plans that evening haha. Obviously he knows were at Disney but probably thinks we'll be back in the room by 7pm haha.
