Is end of March, early April crazy busy?

We usually go early August, will it be busier?

We normally go late April / early May when the spring break and easter crowds have died down a bit, but have a look at the crowd levels on easywdw. ..... Although it will be a bit busy with the spring holidays I think it should be manageable

Yes. Arrive early, take your time, don't let it bother you. You might get off lightly this year as Easter is late.

We're going 1st April this year for 10 nights.
Should be the sweet spot between the Spring Break and Easter crowds.
But it can be crazy busy if you catch either one of those periods...

Err, I'm not sure it'll be as sweet as you think - the weak BEFORE Easter (this year Sat 12th) onwards is when is REALLY kicks off, but even the week beforehand is pretty chaotic. I'd plan a LOT for the first few days before the crowds start toward the first weekend of April.

We find that this Universal crowd calendar seems to be pretty accurate for all the parks (obviously ignore the opening times for other parks - but the crowd level indicator is pretty spot on).
