May or June?

[DreamtheImpossible]

Hey all!

I am taking my 5yr Old nephew and 1 year old son to Disneyland for the first time. I originally wanted to go the 4-8th of May, but wondered if the first full week of June would be better.

I'd really like minimum closures, as it may be my nephew's only trip. Crowds are factor, although I know there's no slow time in Disney any more, I'd like to know opinions on whether you'd go in May or June!

Thanks!

When are AP blockouts in that time period? That would factor in my decision.

Have you seen the thread about when events are happening? I’ll go bump it.

I would do the second full week of June (11th on) because the low level annual pass holders will be blocked.

June by far. Lowest crowds of the year. Still crowded though but the lowest.

They aren't blocked the first week?

Here is a snip of the TWO calendars for Southern California residents. It will show you when each level is blocked.

I hate to say it but you can't have both with those 2 weeks, pick your most important want. It's weird but there is no way to balance both those between those 2 weeks imho. Hours will be shorter early May and rides are always down that time of year in prep for summer kick-off over Memorial. The first week of June is many AP holders last chance to DL for awhile so parks are correspondingly crowded. Personally I would pick June because I prefer full park hours & less ride closures. So: lower crowds = May. no closures & full park hours = June.

I would choose June because most of the rides will be open.
