First of November crowds/weather

[madelinesmum]

We will be returning to "The Happiest Place on Earth" just before Halloween and staying through the 4th of November. Can anyone tell me what the crowd level will be like AFTER HALLOWEEN?
Also, how are the other parks on the day before and the day of Halloween?
Now, one more question? What is weather like in Orlando in end Oct first of Nov?

I haven't been myself, but I've done some research since we will be there at the same time. It looks like crowds and weather are pretty good. According to weather.com, usually in the low 80's with little rain. I have read some posts that say this is the best time of year to go for crowds and weather. I am so looking forward to this trip. Our last trip was May 05, and it was crazy hot and lots of people. Cooler weather and less crowds will be welcome.

Anyone else have first hand experience?

We been to WDW twice in November in the past few years (2003 & 2005). Crowds are reasonable but do tend to build as Vets Day approaches. Weather is 70's and 80's with little rain (in the 14 days we were there in the past two years we had one day with some drizzle and another with rain in the morning). All other days were sunny and dry.

Love, love, love going to disney in November. Past 2 years (and this year as well) we have gone the first week in November. The weather has been amazing (I am from New England) so this is great since we are just starting to get cold at that time

As for crowds...I do not find it that bad. Weekend days a little more busy, but none of the rides had crazy wait times. If they did we would just Fast Pass them and come back after riding something else.

Have a great time!!! I will be arriving on Nov. 3rd and it can't get here quick enough!!

We went Nov. 6-12 one year, the trip we got engaged on actually, and it was also soap star weekend and Food & Wine festival time. The weekdays were quite nice crowd-wise, and we avoided MGM on the weekend when the soap folks were there...that Saturday night at MK was really busy -not compared to say, summertime busy though. The weather was great too, warm during the day, and comfortable at night that a sweatshirt & shorts was all you needed...but that was just one week in 2002.

I was there last Nov. 3-6. The weather was a little cool in the mornings and evenings (think layers) but it was absolutely GORGEOUS during the daytime. We even spent a little time in the pool. Crowds were pretty light, Food and Wine Festival was lots of fun. We did everything we wanted to do without much hassle. Since my AP expires Nov. 4, I am squeezing in a Nov. 1-4 trip this year and can't wait. Great time to go!
