Hi

We will be there for President's weekend.
Trying to stragize on going to the park on the less crowded days/and staying at the pool on the crowded days.
It's a holiday weekend, plus there's usually a marathan during that time...

Staying at Beach Club

Figured Sunday 19th/Monday 20th we would want to do Epcot for the last of the art festival one of these days, the other make it a pool day.

Which would you choose for what day?

Thanks!!

Are you going to take advantage of early entry or the extended evening hours at Epcot on Monday 2/21 assuming they continue? Depending on the ages of your party, I would plan to take advantage of one or the other or both.

You could do early entry at Epcot on Monday, head back to the pool in the afternoon for a break, grab some lunch, rest, and then head back to the park in the evening.

early entry and extended hours are new for us. Is that available both Sunday or Monday?
Also any opinion on which day would be less crowded? How are President day Mondays for crowds

 

[MIALIAS]

do we know which days the extended hours are?
do you think the Sunday or Monday will be more crowded at park?

All Disney resort guests are eligible for early entry 30 minutes prior to park opening for all 4 parks every day, so if Epcot is scheduled to open at 9:00 AM, early entry will start officially at 8:30. I would arrive at least an hour before however.

The evening extended hours are available for guests staying at Disney deluxe hotels like the Beach Club plus the Swan and Dolphin and Shades of Green only on certain nights. Currently, Epcot is 2 hours and Magic Kingdom is 2 hours on Wednesday nights past regular park close. CMs will scan your magic band at every ride to verify eligibility , and not all rides will be open. Food will be limited during the evening hours as well.

President’s day weekend will be pretty crowded both days
