Crowd levels at due to ROTR at other parks (not DHS)?

[Kesohio63]

Can anyone tell me what the crowd levels are like at the other parks now that ROTR is open? We’ll be there next week, and while I’m willing to get up really early once or twice, I don’t want to do it every day! Luckily I snagged FP + for most of my must dos, but it would be nice to know what to expect at opening. Thanks!

Epcot and MK were a dream before 11 am on Dec 5 (opening day). We left Dec. 6, others will know about what’s it’s been like since then.

We're going this weekend and skipping DHS. Would also like to know what it's been like now that ROTR is open.

You might want to edit the thread title to make it clear you're asking about crowd levels at the other parks. I thought you meant crowd levels at DHS (skimming down the list of threads, can't read all of them) and almost didn't read the thread.

Done - thanks for the suggestion!

Crowd Levels this weekend were pretty heavy. MK Saturday was a rare full day with PM EMH so that was one reason there. Animal Kingdom was busy as well. Epcot was pretty good in the morning but weekend crowds are always heavy there at night and with Festival of the Holidays and Whoopi Goldberg the park was very crowded as well. Best to see how things are this week...

I found the crowd levels to be very heavy at Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom this past weekend.

It's December. It will be crowded at all parks.

Things have clearly changed. Even a few years ago, the first 2 weeks of December tended to be quieter, then got really busy.
This year could be an anomally with ROTR opening, or it could be the new normal.

Awesome. I guess it’s good to be prepared! Thanks!

I don't really judge busy times based on weekend crowds, especially when the weather is nice. Weekday crowds are a better indicator.
