So we will be there for a quick visit on Sept 11th at Epcot. It shows on the crowd calendars that this is the worst park to go to, so I've already planned for that, I figure it is because of the EMH..
what I'm wondering is if it will be really packed that night because of Night of Joy at MK. I can't help but wonder if everyone will head over to EP if they aren't going to that.?
It usually isn't to bad this time of year overall, but just wondering I guess, mainly because we will have DD's friend with us who has never been and would like to see Illuminations, but won't stay if it's to crowded... any thoughts?
 
In Sept, Illuminations seems, to me, to be about the same as far as the crowd goes. There is always a large pack leaving, when it is over, and virtually everyone in the park watching. I have been to Epcot in Sept in Low and Upper Medium Crowd levels (According to the crowd calendars), and the change between them was not significant to me.

Hope that helps, and See you there! We are leaving to drive down on Monday and will be in Epcot on the same night. ;
 
Thanks! I love going in Sept. just never been while something else was happening at MK.. so you don't think it will be more crowded then?
 

I am sure that it will be more crowded.

But for Illuminations, I don't think that the crowd will impact viewing. I could be wrong. We shall see :)

The only time I have been to something I thought was absolutely crazy in September(Crowd Level wise)was 2 years ago at the Friday the 13th Villain's Party at HS. The crowd was insane, and most of the people that we spoke with were cast members. It was so crowded that we left after waiting 2 hours for a show that was still another hour away. My kids were miserable.
