We are returning to California on vacation again in May /June and will be without any doubt heading to Disneyland a few days
Never been this time of the year before we have always been there between July and Dec(Xmas) ...Xmas Day 2003 was fun apart from when the rain came down

Our vacation time is between May 26th til June 10th ... just wondered when the best times to go to the park are in this time of the year ...

thanks

Well, the weather should be good. The crowds should be moderate.

Here are some tips:

1. Holidays - the last Monday in May is a major American Holiday - Memorial Day - and holiday weekends normally draw larger crowds. See "List of American Holidays" www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1937849

2. Grad Nights - Disneyland hosts high school seniors for an overnight celebration in May and June. It will not affect day visits as the seniors only attend during a midnight-6AM session, but it does mean that the parks close early. These are usually on Wednesday and Thursday nights. Here are the dates: http://www.grad-nights.com/gradnightcalifornia.htm

3. Except for weekends, the time frame you are considering is a time of moderate crowds and hence will have reduced entertainment mid-week. So choose your days wisely. See "What You Should Know About Off-Season at DLR" www.disboards.com/showthread.php?p=18462889
