Hi all! Just want to see everyone's opinions on what Memorial Day Weekend crowds will be like this year as swge opens the next week. I know I scheduled my trip in hopes of missing the opening. Will it be extra busy?
 
No one can know what the opening of SWGE will do to MDW crowds this year, but the last two years, crowds were good to very good. Things didn't get crowded until the Monday, and crowds continued to build through the week. Check the AP blockout calendar for your dates -- the more APs blocked, the better. But this year, with the official announcement of SWGE's opening the following week, that could add some crowds as people visit trying to avoid that opening. If MDW is when you can visit, just go! Do you best research and planning here, make your reservations (TS dining and dining packages) ahead of time, bring lots of patience and a positive attitude, and have a great time!

FWIW, we were there Sat/Sun of Memorial Day weekend last year. Crowd levels were surprisingly okay, I'd say 7/10.
 
We began our APs on the Saturday of Memorial weekend in 2017. It was the least crowded day we experienced at the park during any trip of our entire 13 month AP. It was a block out date. The weekend we visited in October was our most crowded experience.
