Disney World Crowds

Disney World crowds are hard to predict even for seasoned veterans. Our Disney World Crowd Calendar is extensively researched by professional statisticians to help you answer "When to go to Disney World?" and "Which park to visit each day?" This calendar ranks crowds in Disney World for the next 365 days and recommends which parks to visit and which parks to avoid. You should use it to:

  1. Compare two sets of travel dates to see which has the lower crowds.
  2. Help you pick which park to visit on each day.
  3. Decide which Disney World Touring Plan (if any) to use.

Subscribers get full access to the full Crowd Calendar, but here's a teaser:

The Crowd Calendar Is Based On Wait Times

Our Unofficial Guide researchers have collected wait times in Walt Disney World for over a decade. Thanks to our mobile app, we get hundreds of wait times daily from our fabulous users. With this dataset, Fred Hazelton, our professional statistician, updates this calendar every week.

How We Rank Crowds

The crowd level is based on a scale from 1 to 10, with 1 being the least crowded conditions and 10 being most crowded. The scale represents the combined wait times at all the standby lines in Walt Disney World. It is a relative scale--an '8' is more crowded than '7' which is more crowded than '6'. The crowd level tells you how each day compares to all other days we have on record. Read more on Crowd Levels.

Choosing The Best Park To Visit

The park you choose each day can significantly affect your overall time in line. Our Crowd Calendar lists which parks to visit, and which to avoid. These recommendations are primarily based on wait times with a few special exceptions to make sure you can fit in a full day of touring. Read More about Park Recommendations.
