November Crowd Question

How are crowds usually the first week of November? I just want to be prepared one way or the other. We are planning a trip for November 2-9. Thank you.

Generally moderate at worst.

You will be going during the infamous "Jersey Week"- most NJ school kids have some or all of that week off school due to the Teachers' convention held Thursday and Friday of that week. Crowds are in the moderate range, getting slightly more busy the end of the week (Thur- Sat). You can handle the week pretty well by using your FP+ wisely, getting to the parks at rope drop, and doing the most popular attractions at the beginning or end of the day.

Thanks, doesn't sound too bad. I'm really hoping that MVMCP starts that week so we can go for my son's birthday.

We were there October 29th-November 9th last year. The crowds were moderate. We never had to wait too long for rides except for those rides that always have long waits (toy story, splash mountain, etc). It was a good time to go for us and we will be going back same time this coming year.

I have come to learn it is Jersey Week and I did not know that when I was there. Of course looking back we ran in to a lot of people from New Jersey which was just fine. Good bunch of people. So it is not a drawback.

We love going in November; crowds are very manageable!

It's the last week of the Food and Wine Festival in EPCOT. Any part of your vacation on a FRI, SAT or SUN in EPCOT will be crowded. Just avoid Epcot on weekend days and you should be fine.

I didn't realize that, thanks for the tip. I think we will only have one Epcot day and will make sure it's a weekday.
