Utah Fall breaks

[dizneekrazee]

Can anyone please direct me, or tell me, which week in October Utah generally has their fall break?

Thank you!

The UEA typically is held the third weekend in October. Folks start going there after Columbus Day and stay through the weekend.

UEA or Utah Education Association meetings or as I call it Utah Escapes to Anaheim is October 16th - 17th this year.

I want to combine DLR with one of the fall Baja sailings next year. Sailings are 10/4, 10/11, and 10/18, we would do 2-3 parks PRIOR to sailing. Which would you recommend?

Do you mean you are doing 2-3 park days before sailing?
If so I would choose the 18th...
The weekend of the 4th will be Gay Days...very busy. The weekend of the 11th will have AZ school breaks, CHOC Walk and Columbus Day. I feel like the 18th will be the lesser of three evils.

That's exactly what I mean! Thank you for the tip, as that was the week I was leaning towards.

This link has some info for October.

The last two times we have gone in October, we have been surprised at how busy the parks have been.

As others have said, there are no real slow times any more.

I live in Utah and this year it's the 16th thru 19th of October. I just looked at the school calendar. It's also just called fall break now.

Good luck!

I personally think the 4th would be the best of those dates. The 11th is right between Utah's and Arizona's break. Just because Utah's break doesn't start until the 16th, don't think that families don't pull their kids out for the whole week to go to Disneyland. (Many, many do). So on the 11th, you'll have the first of the Utah Fall break people and the tail end of the Arizona fall break people. And the 18th is right in the middle of Utah's break and will be busy too.

Opps, Forgot about Gay Days. It will be busy any of those times. Could you go after your cruise instead? I imagine the park will be less busy the next week.

As previous posters have said "fall break" for the Alpine district (which is currently the largest district in Utah) is the 16th - 20th, this is the first year in recent history that our district has taken their break to overlap UEA so expect A TON of Utah people in the parks!

My kids will have 10/16 & 17 off, we're headed to WDW! I get a little tired of the Y and U shirts, hats, and whatnot in the parks when Utah escapes to Disney
