Crowds - Nov 3-9th?

[disneyrunner]

We arrive at WL Nov 3rd and will be staying through the 9th. I've read about Jersey Week, Wine and Food Festival, etc during our stay. How busy is this week? We have visited in early June, early Sept, Oct and early Dec. How does this week cpmpare? I know we will have a great time but I want to know what to tell DD's to expect regarding waits. Nov will be here before we know it!!!

We'll be making our 3rd annual Jersey Week trip this year. We leave home 10/30 and arrive 10/31 and will stay until 11/6. The past 2 years, crowds that week were minimal. They are a little heavier than usual for that time of year, but nothing compared to peak season. We never waited more than 10-15 minutes to ride anything and we used FastPass to eliminate waiting on the most popular attractions. Weather last year was perfect too. I think a lot of folks get scared off when they hear about Jersey Week and that's fine with me. But honestly, the crowds are not a problem at all.

Thanks for the info. I have heard some horror stories about this week but I questioned the sources. It great to hear from someone who has been there more than once. I hope you have a great trip!

I agree 100% with disneysteve.

Our last two trips have been first week of November, in 2000 and 2003. We've been concerned about Jersey Week leading up to both trips, haven't had a problem either time.

If you want to enjoy the F&W Festival, I would advise avoiding weekends. The lines get pretty long on Saturday and Sunday. And they don't have FP for the food boothes!
