Article on Wizarding World Attendance

[damo]

In summary:

Based on the numbers Universal has reported, it appears that the Wizarding World of Harry Potter lifted the resort’s July attendance by something between 30 percent and 43 percent compared with a year earlier. A pretty astounding figure, either way.

Fantastic news for Uni! I really hope that this success continues. Hopefully we will see even more new visitors popping over to the darkside, who hopefully catch the Uni bug and become repeat visitors

It would be interesting to see if WDW increased also to see if people are coming exclusively for WWOHP or combining the 2 theme parks. Either way they would be crying at WDW because they obviously prefer 100% of a vacationer's dollar go to them.

I like the part in the article where it says that September will be one of the slowest times of year, as usual! Just the time when my trip comes up!
Always in September!

Me too! I went to Universal for the very first time this past May for just a couple of partial days during my regular WDW trip, but stayed at WDW. I liked it so much I upgraded my 7 day 2 park ticket to an AP. My first onsite stay at Universal is in two weeks (August 29th-Sept 4th). I also plan on going back for a couple of days during my WDW trips in Oct, Dec, and next May.
