Attendance

[OhMari]

On an average day at the Magic Kingdom, how many people are there?

Weekdays, about 78; Weekends, over 100.


So sorry, I'm in a mood!

Hey OhMari,

Do you mean "how many people visit the park on a given day" or "what's the maximum number of people in the park at any given time?"

On a very busy day, we've heard of around 100,000 people passing through the turnstiles at the Magic Kingdom. I think the park closes to additional guests now when there are more than 50-60,000 people actually in the park. I'm sure some C/M will know the exact figures.

I've heard from a couple of C/Ms that they measured something like 90,000 people in the MK simultaneously. I believe it was a July 4 a few years back. Because of the crowds, we're told, paramedics had a difficult time getting to folks who were passing out from the heat. That's why the 50-60K limit is in effect now. Fire codes probably have something to do with it, too.

Hope this helps. If anyone has more exact numbers, I'd love to hear 'em.

Sincerely,

Len
