Epcot on May 15th

[WDWRook]

May 15th, Sunday, is the last day of the Garden event. The crowd calendar at easywdw shows as green, recommended but not the top recommended. Do you think the crowds would be larger given it is the last day of this event? Or, does the event really not draw that much difference in crowds?

We were down for our Honeymoon last May and attended F&G on it's last day. Crowds were quite manageable at Epcot during the entire two weeks we were there, so you SHOULD be in good shape

I could probably flip EP to Friday the 13th (most recommended) then AK on Sunday the 15th (most recommended) but our thought was that EP would be a good park for the last day of the trip. So, unless that change would have a significant impact on crowd levels, I'll keep it as is.

If I'm not mistaken F&G has been extended through May, ending on the 30th.

The Flower & Garden is going thru May 30th this year.

But I did go the Saturday of the last weekend in 2015 (mid-May) & crowds wise it was ok. Not worse than the weekends I saw for Food & Wine in Oct & Nov this year!

Adding: it was also the opening weekend for Star Wars weekends at HS so that may have affected the Epcot crowds also? There won't be any Star Wars weekends this year so that may change the crowd levels/people distribution some at the parks?

We were there in early May for Flower & Garden about 3 years ago, crowds seemed fine

Whew!! Glad someone corrected that! I'm going May 15-22 and am really excited about the F&G festival! I thought it was running during those dates - this startled me for a second!

We always go that time in May and Epcot was never a problem.
Have fun!

Thanks for the heads up. Guess we will keep it as is.
