How are the crowds second week of December?

I just booked a last minute trip for December 11 and 12 a Thursday and Friday. How are the crowds then? It’s been 3 years since I’ve done a trip in December. Planning to go to Animal Kingdom and Hollywood studios on Thursday and Epcot Friday. Also any can’t miss things to do for the holidays would be really helpful! Going with my 2 and 5 year old.

Hi! I went those dates last year and attended HS on that Thursday---it was very crowded. I actually did the PP only for HS on that day and I'm glad I did. I would switch Epcot to Thursday and HS to Friday--that will be crowded as well, but HS has more rides than Epcot and if you make rope drop with LLMPs it will probably be a better day. That was my experience last year with the same dates.

This year I'm going a week later ---Dec. 14-19--and I'm also worried about the crowds but I'm planning out my strategy-----rope drop....LLMPs, LLSP, going to 2 parties : Jollywood and MVMCP to hopefully have lower crowds. MK would be less crowded on Thursday a.m. and Fri. a.m. HTH

My only experience with this week dates back to 2008, and it was very manageable. But we know that was a different time and does not apply now.
