Epcot Day in October?

[KLAIT]

OK...Have always been to Disney in Late November-Early Dec. HAve always done EPCOT on Sunday and never any crowds.

We have decided to give MNSSHP a try in 2005 and am wondering what park we should do on Sunday since the Food and Wine Festival will be going on when we are there. I assume Sunday is a bad day for EPCOT since a lot of locals will be out and about.

Any suggestions?

We went to Epcot several days during our last stay (Oct9-18)-the earlier after world showcase opening the smaller the crowds. They tend to get very busy in the late afternoons-really didn't seem to matter which days (although mid week seemed somewhat better). If you plan to have a sitdown dinner, do make PS's. It will save alot of time and headache.

We have gone in Oct. two years in a row, and have never found things extremely crowded. The food and wine festival is cool, but I dont' think it really made things much more crowded when we went. The Halloween party is FABULOUS though! Any other questions about Oct., let me know. It's a great time to go.

Great Info! Thanks.

Which Park would you recommend to avoid the crowds this time of year on a Sunday? Is it MGM that has early entry on Sunday?

We are so excited to go to the Halloween Party-Have done the Christmas Party several times and I abslutely love it..I could live there and never want to go home. The weather is so nice (warm for us as we are escaping the snow and below zero temps) and the parks are empty. But, DH wants to go at a time of the year that we don't have to plow feet of snow and worry about waterpipes freezing while we are gone..

So, October it is.....!! Booked the ASMo today for all nights, but am going to keep my fingers crossed for codes and jump to a moderate for the majority of the nights or maybe rent points and OKW...Had a hard time deciding which moderate as my 6yo didn't know where to pick to stay.

Do you think the Movies will be extremely crowded and would I be better off in Sports or Pop?

From what I hear from All Star Resorts - Pop Century is a favorite, so it will be probably be busy, and sports is always busy with teams. At least when we were there this Oct. there were sports teams (lots of teenagers - yikes!) there. I would say that Movies would be a great idea, although all of them should be fine in Oct. If you are worried about them being busy, I think Music seems to be the most empty always, but none should be too bad.


I would definitely stay away from the early entry park if you don't plan on using the early entry. So you are right, I would not do MGM.
