Crowd level 2/14?

[missnic]

I'm trying to add Saturday night, 2/13, but it appears that all universal hotels are sold out. We are planning to hit the parks on Sunday, 2/14, mostly for the Mardi Gras concert, and Diagon Alley. Are the parks going to be crazy crowded? We were here the same weekend last year, and it wasn't bad at all.. but the hotels weren't all booked.

The combination of President's day weekend, two mardi gras concerts, likely great weather, valentines day, race week at Daytona, and folks escpaing the real mardi gras in Louisiana makes for a likely slammed weekend. I'm going to be a mardi gras float rider this Sunday (and tossing out beads), and we're expecting it to have very high crowds. (Not Christmas levels insane, but up that way)

Bead tossing will be a lot of fun

You can watch the mad rush of scrambling to grab the beads

Congrats

Can I quote you on that

I'll wave to you from the front of the concert area

We're really only going to see the concert (barenaked ladies - my all time favorite band) and some of the HP stuff if we can, so huge crowds aren't a dealbreaker. Our APs expire on Tuesday, so one last trip

It was like a full blown Spring Break week there. I wish they'd raise the prices or something.
