What park what day?

[mickey&minniealways]

I know that there are sites out there that will tell us what parks are busier on certain days but no clue how to find them. Can anyone help. Trying to plan out our stay and ADR's.

A lot of the features cost money. (Like $15)

I just go with "the day after EMH". I go to a park the day after it had EMH, and if more than one park had EMH, I choose the park that had evening EMH to go to the day afterwards. Don't know if this is a good theory, but so far it's seemed OK.

We used kenny the pirate, didnt cost anything. Click on your month then choose your dates. This site gives you lots of info. They always recomend staying away from a park if it has evening emh, so we tend to go to the recomended park for the day then hop over to the park with emh and do what we call the extras. Walking around, its really nice to slow the pace down and take it all in.we also lok in the shops and do the smaller rides and show like tikki room,one mans dream, the aquarium and lion king. We also take advantage of the extra fp options for a few extra rides.
Apparently Mondays is a big no for magic kingdom as always busy as are the weekends in most of the parks. If food and wine is on during your holiday then avoid Epcot in the eveinings on a fri sat and sun, super crowded ,

We park hop on EMH. So if MK has EMH - we go to a different park during the day and park hop to MK in the evening. We don't do the fireworks that night and just do the rides - we get more done that way.

undercovertourist.com has a good crowd calendar.

My opinion is different than most, but... I very much think it makes just about no difference. If you want to go to MK on a Tuesday, go. Want to go to HS on a Saturday, go. Generally speaking, weekends are busier and that holds true in all parks. We don't track it at all, but I'll bet I've been in every park on every day of the week, probably multiple times. I couldn't tell you what park is busy on a Monday...maybe we're just oblivious to it, but we don't really notice any differences.

We always go to Magic Kingdom on our first full day!!!
Each park gets a morning visit (to rope drop) and use first 3 FPs, have a TS lunch around 1, back to the resort and hop to a different park for the evening.

You can just enter the question in the search engine and you will get alot of sites, most are free. I check 2-3 before deciding which day.

I haven’t found that it makes a lot of difference. If you are staying offsite and are ropedropping, don’t go to a park with morning EMH because you will be behind all the on-site guests.

I find that the best laid plans can be destroyed on FP booking day. Keep your options open.

Another vote for "it does not matter." I appreciate the crowd calendar sites and will look at them for general reference but have never noticed any significant difference in park crowdedness in any given trip I've taken.

We have always used crowd calendars but.... when going at the busiest times of the year, I don't know how much they help. LOL. If I follow their advice for our next trip, I won't go to MK until the end of our trip. I think I may need to "suck it up, buttercup" and just go when we want to go. We'll see..... I have a little more time to decide. I'll keep an eye on this thread lol.

So do we but we usually go in the spring. Everything is busy then. This is our first time going in September.

Thanks for all the advice. This is far from our first trip. I have gone probably every two to three years since 1976. But this is the first time we have gone in September. I was 13 the first time I went.
