February presidents day week vs week after Christmas

[TinkBink]

We went to Disney World for the first time over our February school vacation week this year (presidents day week) and are considering going the week after Christmas. But we have heard the crowds are insane. Can someone give me a sense of the crowd comparison between presidents day week and the week after Christmas?

If you're talking the week in between xmas day and new years...expect it to be MUCH more crowded than Presidents day week. Presidents day week is crowded, but nothing like the week after xmas.

I agree. Some schools are out the week of President’s Day, but nearly all schools are out between Christmas and New Year’s. Late December will be much more crowded than February.

The week you are asking about is one of the busiest, if not the busiest week of the entire year.

Thanks everyone! That's what I suspected. Presidents Day week was very crowded and probably about the limit for us crowd wise so I think we will look for another time!

There is a block of days before Feb. 14th that have lower crowds. After Feb. 4th and before the 12th tends to be a slower period in the parks.
