June 2-3 or June 14-15, 2016

As a part of a trip to Europe we will be in the park for 2 days. Which days will be less busy June 2 and 3 or June 14 and 15? Online I saw that England has a half term break from May 30 to June 3. Will this make that week very busy?

I can't say about the half term week but in 2013 we went June 2-5 but that was the week after May half term. There was a maximum of ten minute ride lines, exception was Crush's Coaster as it had no FP but the wait time was only 40 minutes. I'd probably go for the 14/15 because of no holidays, but the worst is when France have their school holidays so make sure there is nothing going on.

As you already realised the first dates are half-term holiday for some of the UK but not all, some schools have the previous week. So I'd expect it to be busier than the 14th/15th however I've been that half-term week before and thought the park was empty compared to when I've been in August! If it was me booking I'd make 14th/15th my first choice but if 2nd/3rd is more convenient then don't worry too much about crowds.
