Will the week of Labor Day still be crowded?

Labor Day is Mon, 9/4. We arrive that Fri, 9/8. Will there still be crowds from Labor Day when we get there?

Last year we arrived the Saturday after the Labor Day holiday. We were very surprised at how uncrowded the parks were. All the rides were very manageable. Never used a fast pass. Free Dining still made it harder for some dinner reservations, but the parks were not crowded at all.
It was extremely hot though !!
We decided that trade-off was worth it again this year. We planned for September instead of our normal October again this year.

One of the best times to go. The heat will be your worry ... not the crowds.

I concur with the other two posters. We were there last year over Labor Day. The longest wait was 20 minutes. (Soarin') The Tuesday after Labor Day, we literally walked of Pirates and walked right back on.

Has it really been that long since.....* sigh *


Have a great time.

We always go the week before labor day. It's great. Usually a lot slower. I think labor day itself was the only packed day.
See you there.
