Epcot was crazy today

[anabelle]

I have been at Christmas and Thanksgiving and I have never seen it so crazy. With the food and wine festival and Dapper day it was nuts

 

[erin1715]

We were there earlier and it was ok at opening and then got nuts early afternoon. We came to MK this evening and this is worse. The crowds are stupid crazy.

 

[CarrieR]

Great. We were at Epcot this morning and bailed.... Like, "We're near France and are so over the crowds, let's take the boat to the Studios and catch the bus there instead of walking up front through them." And we're headed to MK tonight. It's the only night of my trip to see Wishes...

The wife and I were thinking about heading to F&W today but when she saw a 50 minute wait for Spaceship Earth, we knew it must be a zoo.

Wait times in MK AWFUL!!!

Friend working said crazy all day and they were told Epcot & MK parking lots are packed.

Space and HM 95 minutes
7DMT 140 minutes

but crazy is
Ariel and MM 70 minutes
Pirates 65 minutes
Under the Sea 60 minutes

NO WAY! I was thinking Mon/Tues before T-Day ... rethinking.

 

[I loveStitchnippyjon]

We're arriving tomorrow and want to catch the last day of F&W. Hope it's not too crazy!

We just left. On the bus back to the hotel. Too many people and way too many drunk people.

They closed Epcot parking and had cars in the grass. Last night I saw a guy puke in front of Norway and got knocked into many times by drunks. I wouldn't go in there for free tonight.

Oh my... we were in Epcot over the Veteran's Day weekend a couple of years ago and thought is was busy but this sounds worse.

We head south on Wednesday and was hoping to get a coupe of park visits in before the T-Day rush. Like HopperFan I am rethinking the plan. I will be watching wait times on Monday and Tuesday to see if this was just the holiday weekend, end of F&W crush.

Me too! See you there!

I left today from the GF and didn't go to either park but did have lunch over at Beaches and Cream - MK's entrance was a zoo at 10:30 and the road to Epcot was completely backed up by 1 and the entrance to MK was even more crowded!

Will also be checking the wait times Mon & Tues. I am hoping the end of F&W, long holiday weekend .... the super-moon and Clemson's loss to Pitt will bring some lower crowds until the official Turkey Day weekend. If not ..... I'll stay on the beach those days.

This actually hasn't been that uncommon in the mornings until about noon to 1ish actually and I've seen the place really empty with that ride packed also. this weekend though, it's going to be a madhouse with f&w ending, jersey week ending, veterans day weekend, filming of the 3 disney holiday specials..

 

[got2sammies]

We did Epcot Tuesday... wasn't too crazy but it was busy. food lines only took about 10 minutes but frozen was 120 minutes

 

[NH-to-FL]

Me too! See you there!

I am jealous... we love Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.

Have fun!

 

[anniemae]

Well it is last weekend of F & W, dapper day, long holiday weekend, Christmas taping with many Disney stars. Perfect storm.

I just went for a couple of hours after getting out of work to see the last two sets of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and see some dapper people and I had a swell time.Definitely had no interest in riding anything or waiting 30 minutes to get anything from a food booth so I did all I wanted to do and enjoyed the night.I saw a couple of rowdy people but nobody that was really drunk,I will say I smelled a funny smell coming from someone smoking something while others in the group of where the smell was coming from were yelling,"hey its medicinal"and "he's from Colorado".That's definitely a first for me at Disney!!And as far as Eat to the Beat concerts I got to see 25/26 groups,just missed Living Colour.

 

[snchpnz]

Yeah, the amount of people was insane but the waits for FW booths weren't that bad. Honestly, I've had longer waits during lower crowd days. They were running very efficiently.

Thank you for the update! The wife and I had plans set up to go to Epcot yesterday, and had to cancel. Maybe it was a good thing we didn't make it!
