Feb.26th-Mar.3? Or Mar.5-11th???

[YesI'mObsessed]

HELP!!!! If I don't book this trip soon, I'm gonna scream. So worried about the crowds. The unofficial guide has the levels the first week at 6 &7, the March week as 7 & 8's. Is that really that much of a difference?

I'm heading down March 3-7, and am curious to words on the expected crowd. I know ESPN The Weekend will be there, but I've read this a traditionally low crowd time. We'll see if ESPN makes it extra crowded or not...

Lots of florida folks will be there the weekends of march 10-12 and 17-18 and prob the next also traditionally the few weekends before the blcok out for easter Disney is packed with passholders and trust me there are alot of them.. I suggest february dates.... march also has spring breakers coming throughout the month....

We're going down March 6 to the 10TH ... wondering about crowds too.... Heard Cheerleaders might be at the POP resort...
Any feedback?

I went 3/5-3/12 last year.We experienced the lowest crowds EVER-- didn't wait more than 20 minutes on line, and buses came frequently. We stayed at the All Star Movies. On the day before we left, kids arrived for some type of competition. Even so, only needed Fast Pass for Test Track. I thought it would be worse b/c of spring break, but it was one of the best trips ever! Weather was perfect also-- mid-upper 70's during the day. Chillier in the mornings and evenings, but perfect for me

That is good to know. I kind of got freaked out when I saw the unofficial guide's crowd level at 7. I know lots of Florida college spring breaks are at that time, but aren't they at the beach? Thanks.

We're headed down Mar 11-18 and I am also freakin out about the crowds! We are staying at POP and are only going to the parks 2 days and relaxing the rest of the time so hopefully during the week the parks won't be toooooo crowded! Here's to HOPING!!!

We're heading down March 3 - 13, I was wondering about the ESPN thing and the cheerleaders as well.

I went this same time period, years ago, and it was really quiet I don't think we waited for much at all.

I figure the college spring breakers are going to go somewhere they can drink and be stupid.

Here's to hoping for the best. I think we'll avoid MGM during ESPN weekend if it's crazy.

Who know, maybe we'll see you there, we'll be a party of 7, 6 grown ups, 3 have English accents, 1 small person who will be in a harness to avoid her running away, one stressed out mom (me), with her parents behind her likely with her mom trying to dictate the situation (because my mom thinks it's always all about her.)

Enjoy your vacation!

I went through tour guide mike and he just has a 1-5 system.
He had 2/26-2/28 as a 2 and the 3/1-3/3 as a 3. I hope he is right keep your fingers crossed

 

[dopeyfordisneyworld]

I too hope he's right. That's when we'll be there!! I'll keep my fingers crossed!!!

Oh my! You are too funny! We will be the party of 9, 3 adults, 6 kids! They will likely all be screaming, tired, and annoying all the other guests! Me, I'll be the one at my whits end! Can't wait!

Last year we went around March 1-5 It was great! We had gone the year before last september 20-28 and had longer waits at the rides and such. I definetely noticed an increase on crowds in march. I guess that's because during the end of september many children are on Mardi Gras break......Well either way those are both great times to go! Hope you have fun!
