Rope drop arrival times

[Mrspeaks]

For each of the 4 parks, what would be the suggested arrival time for rope drop? We don't have to be the first ones in the park, with two young kids we are just wanting to beat some crowds. We arrive this Saturday! Thank you!

Arrive at the park gates 30-40 minutes before the posted opening times.
(And, earlier beats later every time.)

The MK welcome show starts about 20 minutes before opening.

I would get there 30 to 45 minutes before RD and know where you want to go and how to get there.

The general rule of thumb is to give yourself an hour of travel time to a rope drop. You may get there with half an hour to spare and a 60-second bag check line, or you may end up waiting half an hour for a bus that's so crowded you can't get on it and eventually arrive at the park five minutes before it opens. The more time you give yourself in the morning, the less chance that your morning plans are going to be ruined by a tardy or super crowded bus.
