Spring Break - Is all of April crowded?

[curiouser]

We just got back and we want to start planning our next trip. Since this trip coincided with SO's birthday he's set on the next trip being around my birthday. My birthday is April 19, which falls the third week of April. Is that a crazy week? Easter is April 8.. I'm thinking either April 13-22 or April 20-29. Thoughts?

TIA!!

Try to avoid the two weeks surrounding Easter, but other than that late April/early May is a small lull in the crowd level at WDW.

Epcot's Flower Show starts up then and the weekends can by busy but we have found the weekdays to be ok, not at September levels but not at July levels either.

Most of the schools in New England have either 3rd or 4th week in April as spring vacactions (grades K-12)--New Hampshire and I believe, Vermont have the 4th week And in Massachusetts, 3rd Monday in April is a holiday, Patriot's Day. But since Easter weekend is not on either of these weeks, crowds may be much less than usual.

we went April 25th to May 5th this year, and it was really manageable at that time. EXCELLENT weather too.

Good to hear. I don't mind going the week after my birthday, I just don't want it to be swamped. Then again, we managed Christmas so we can handle anything at this point!

Yeah I too have booked April 20-28th. I heard this should be a great time to go.
