Magic Kingdom Oct 15 Most Crowded I've Ever Seen It

[SimonSez]

I've been to MK more times than I can count, and I have never seen it as crowded as I have tonight. We stayed about 45 minutes and took the monorail to Epcot. We were at MK around 5:30pm, and the start line for Tiana was near where you used to board the Liberty Belle Likewise, the HM start point was also back near the LB dock but facing the other direction. People were pouring in from all directions and unless you had Lightning Lane, you had wait times that were insane. I'm thinking, because there are three Halloween parties this week, people came to MK today since it was open till 11pm. Maybe something else was going on

That’s not great news, for the week of Halloween.

Yep, thats exactly what happens in party season. Add in Columbus/ Indigenous People’s day & fall break for many schools & you get CROWDS.

Only Wednesday was bad, and only MK. Epcot was pretty nice and we didn't go to HS or AK. There were three parties this past week and we went to the Thursday one. We had never been to MNSSHP, and it was great. They give you a ton of candy

Yes, Wednesday at MK was bad because there were parties Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday. So everyone who wanted to see the nighttime parade & fireworks this week had to do it on Wednesday. So like I said, that’s exactly what happens in party season at MK.

Will that basically be the same during Halloween week?

I notice with 2 EEH that week, my only day we’re planning MK in the day is Tuesday, & MK at night will be Saturday, and I’m guessing they both might be a nightmare?

Tuesday during the day at MK should be low crowd, because there is a party that night. Should be great during the day!

Saturday night at MK I would brace for heavy crowds.

I don’t think Halloween week will be quite as bad as this last week was. This week had a Monday holiday & I think some schools were on break, things that don’t apply to Halloween week. Saturday evenings are always busy at MK & even more so during party season. With the new parade, probably even more so. I agree with @RivGirl, expect heavy crowds.
