MLK weekend 2015

I just found out that my daughter's school is off two days next year, MLK Monday and Tuesday also. What could we expect crowd wise if we plan a trip that week from Saturday through friday? Thanks !!

We went this year over MLK weekend and the crowds were busy, but doable. I was really worried because easywdw moved it from 5 to an 8 about about a week before we went, but it worked out.
Have a plan. Keep track of wait times via your phone. Get there early (this year they opened up MK at 8 instead of 9 and kept it open until midnight), take a break in the afternoon (even if it is shopping in stores and watching the show) and then stay later.

We did MK on Sat, DHS on sunday, and Epcot on Monday.

It worked well.
Let me know if you have any questions. I would be happy to help.

I'm wondering the same thing. We can either do Universal/IOA on that weekend (with Express passes) or WDW parks over that weekend. I'm really struggling to decide which would be better!

We arrived on MLK day this year and stayed until Saturday the 25th, so that's all I can advise you on. We thought the crowds were excellent! I can only compare it to May, August, and October. Best crowds out of that sample. But, it was COLD! We utilized our jackets, gloves, hats, scarves etc!
