Crowds at Epcot

[twinsluvdisney]

Does anyone have an idea how busy Epcot gets on Saturdays ? We will be arriving this Saturday (March 17th) and plan to attempt Epcot. We have done the parks many times and we also live in South Florida so we don't have to see everything since we visit so often. I once read that Epcot's slowest day is Saturday. Even though I am a veteran of WDW you guys are the ultimate information source.

Thanks!!

It's moderate right now. I've seen it much, much busier and I've seen it slower. But as far as I'm concerned, Saturday is one of the, if not the busiest day at EPCOT. Especially now as local residents who have Seasonal Passes use the weekend days to visit, for the most part.

That's not to say don't visit the park on Saturday, because all the parks are busy on Saturdays. You'll simply have to take the chance.

If I had to be at any park on a Saturday, it'd be Epcot. It's a huge park, so I never feel too crowded there.

Epcot is the park we always head to when the other parks are crowded. We've only seen it packed twice. Thanksgiving night (mainly because there were so many people who didn't have dinner reservations) and during the Food and Wine Festival.

I don't think you'll have to "attempt" Epcot. I think you'll be "doing" Epcot.
