Best days to go to Disneyland in March 2023

[Lalous]

Hello
I am taking my three year old to Disneyland for the first time and I am trying to figure out what the best days to go are. I’ve looked at all of the crowd calendars, thrill data, etc and in general it looks like early March is the best. I know it is difficult to predict the crowds by day but I’m leaning towards March 7th - 9th (Tue to Thur). However, I noticed that reservations are not available for most magic key holders on March 4th and 5th (Sat and Sun) and wondering if that is a better time to go based on that? I worry because it’s the weekend and assume the following weekday would be better? Any insight would be appreciated! Thank you

Super extended forecast says the rain breaks on 3/7. Take that with a grain of salt, but something to take into account.

I think your first set of dates might be better. Only the Imagine Key is blocked out on 3/4-5. The other MKs are not blocked on those dates. The reservations for those Keys are fully booked right now. This will change as people cancel or if Disney adds more MK reservations for those dates.

I think you are going to just beat the spring break rush on either of those dates. Our Spring break and a lot of others in our part of the country start March 11. Looks like you are looking at 3 days during the week, or 2 on the weekend? I would want that extra day. We haven't been that time of year, so I don't know how Saturdays and Sundays are that time of year compared to weekdays in the pre-spring break March.

I’m going March 22-24. Wednesday-Friday
Did I screw up? We are going to Wondercon that weekend at the end so that is why we are going when we are.

I'm going March 7-10 and from what I've read on various planning sites, calendars etc the crowds look good. Also, it's right before spring break. I know it's hard to predict these days, but I think it will be a great time to go.

March 9th, DLR is closing early for an after hours party. I think Princess night?
