The most crowded times we have been at the parks have been now (late December through NYE) and Easter week.
When it is bonkers bananas crowded, there is still lots to do in the park - but we also do not measure our trips by how many rides we get on. We always have some priorities but we enjoy a lot of other things besides rides. We enjoy most of these things even when the park isn’t super crowded.
Here are some suggestions for MK and Epcot.
MK:
- Entertainment like Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire, FoF, Main Street Trolley Show, Hoedown Happening, Casey’s pianist, Muppets Great Moments in History, etc.
-Things like Enchanted Tiki Room, CoP, Country Bear Jamboree, TTA (even though the line can back up for that.
-Go to the glassblowing demo on Main Street in Crystal Arts.
-Explore the shops on Main Street.
-Tom Sawyer Island
Epcot:
-Explore all of World Showcase. All the films, explore the shops, etc.
-Eat around the world, trying and sharing foods from each country.
