Crowds weekend after Presidents Day

[capnho]

I know President's Day weekend is typically very crowded, but how is the weekend after President's Day? I'm going down for a long weekend with DS7 to stay with the grandparents and was hoping to take him to MGM on Friday and MK on Sunday. I'm planning to get us there early, but will the crowds be bad that weekend? Thanks.

We went this year through President's week and through the following weekend. The only park that I really noticed the high crowd volume was the MK. However, we used the fastpass all day and didn't miss one thing. Around the time of the afternoon parade it can be very difficult to maneuver around the park. Otherwise, it was just fine. You might want to either watch the parade or stay in one area and go on some attactions outside the parade route. The other parks were just fine. Get there early to avoid the crowds getting into the parks. Good luck!!

If possible I'd flip flop the days. Sunday is EMH day at MK. So it usually draws a larger crowd. Therefore, if you go on Friday then do MGM on Sunday- it may make it more managable.

We will be there that weekend too. I am expecting it to be a bit busy, based on last years attendance.

We did MK on Friday this year and it was much less crowded than when we were there Tuesday earlier in the week. I would say you would probably be better off switching those days.
