crowds late Oct/early Nov
- Thread starter janeski
- Start date
Well ordinarily crowds are not bad the last week of October/first week of November (stay away from MK on Halloween day).... but I strongly suspect it may be busier than usual this year. Hotel bookings are WAY up, some have suggested it is due to so many that rescheduled visits during the Sept hurricanes....don't know if that's why, but I am expecting busier than usual. It will still be manageable however I think.
Most projections seem to base this November's crowd level on prior year's attendance. However, has anyone considered the impact on November crowds from the thousands of travelers who unwillingly rescheduled their original September vacation plans due to hurricanes Frances, Ivan and Jeanne, or the thousands of displaced Floridians still staying at WDW and Orlando area resorts because their homes were damaged?
November theme park visitors can certainly expect an increase in crowds due to the International Food and Wine Festival, Eat to the Beat Concert Series, Jersey Week, Election Day, Veterans Day, and Super Soap Weekend. But is anyone also aware that November is traditionally one of Orlandos busiest convention months.
The Orange County Convention Center attracts major events such as the National Association of Realtors Conference, International Association of Amusement Parks & Attractions, Central Florida International Auto Show and Powergen. The combined estimated attendance just from these four November conventions is 105,000.
Of course not all of these individuals will have the opportunity to visit WDW. But given the conservative probability that at least half of the 105,000 conventioneers will want to see Mickey, November attendance would still increase by nearly 53,000 visitors. You wont find that statistic in any WDW guidebook
