President's Week

Is President's Week in Disneyland as terribly busy as it is in WDW? Thanks~

Twice that week. Mid week as more than manageable, certainly busier over the weekend. I am not sure what DW is like but we never found the crowds to be oppressive. We did not go there in 2012 , I have two differeent friends that did and they said it was crazy busy, not sure if that was because of leap day though, and the parks being open so long.

fYI: our school district in Orange County, near Irvine, has NO School Feb 14 & 15 (th & fri)
So Cal AP is blocked off Sat, Sun & Mon, feb 16, 17 & 18.

Happy Planning!

Went 2010 it was real quiet during the mid week but the weekend was crazy busy. Space mountain had 120 min wait as well as IJ. One thing temps in the high 70's with no rain.

we are thinking about going in 2013 President's day week, maybe arriving Monday (president's day) sometime and staying for a few days during the week. My birthday is on the 22nd and I have always wanted to be there for my bday. I plan to avoid the weekend before President's day.

Here in the Northeast and East our schools are off the whole week so that's why I was hoping it may be better...sounds like it may be somewhat better after the weekend...I can handle that! And high 70's would be PERFECT. Our only other option is summer now that we have one in middle school and I'm pretty sure we can't take the summer heat. Thanks everybody.

We went in 2007: Wednesday evening, Thursday, and Friday. Wed/Thurs. were fine, but by Friday it was really, really crowded. Like you'd be walking and all you could see were people coming at you. I can't deal with those kinds of crowds, so there's no way I'd go over the weekend.

We were there this year and found the parks to be very busy but managable. With the extended hours we were able to take a break in the afternoon which helped recharge everyone for the rest of the evening.

The weather was perfect, shorts and t-shirts during the day and a sweatshirt in the evening. I wouldnt hesitate to go again in Feb after Pres day
