When to go?

[kdmkdm7]

Can anyone please tell me when it is the least crowded at Disneyworld? I was thinking of going anywhere from Jan. to May
How is it the week after Easter? Thanks in advance.

Hi-
The week after Easter is typically one of the busiest weeks of the year. Many schools have their spring break that week and lots of people head down then.

Crowds are low from the end of the New Year's week until President's Day weekend in February. March is hit and miss with college spring breaks. The 2 weeks either before or after Easter are very busy. Then by the 3rd week after Easter things slow down again until Memorial Day. In 2002, we went 3 weeks after Easter and it was nice. Our other trips have been in early October or Thanksgiving. We'd like to try to get back sometime in the spring after the Easter rush and before the summer crowds (and heat) show up.

The slowest time of the year is from the end of Thanksgiving week until the start of Christmas week.

HTH!

Leslie,
Thanks so much for your help.

I am going the last week in Jan and first week in Feb and this is supposedly one of the slowest time of year at WDW. I can't wait to test that theory - imagine, not being shoved for placement for parades - not having to rush to get to Dumbo first thing - not having to.... well, you get the point.
