Crowd calendar for summer 2017 was pretty typical:Yeah been noticing the shift from Summer being the busiest time.... for a number of years, going back before COVID.
Block out dates for AP holders have opened up, room rates are no longer "peak" in the summer. It's become the new "value season" - I've been noticing for a few years that it seems that August is now the cheapest and least crowded time to go.
Of course your likly to die from heat exhaustion....![]()
most of June was Regular season
Last part of June through middle of August was Peak season.
Lare August to Labor day was Regular season.
Most of September was Low crowd season.
I've been going to WDW in summer for many years. There has long been a drop off in late August, but July 4th week was always very busy.
We usually take an afternoon break in summer, and the storms are an inconvenience, but otherwise we enjoy going to WDW in summer.
