Mardi Gras and Spring Break Season Arrives
by Fred Hazelton March 4, 2014As New Orleans Schools break for Mardi Gras celebrations Walt Disney World prepares for the first influx of Spring Break visitors. Because Spring Breaks vary from region to region, crowds for the period between mid-March and late April are historically the most unpredictable of the year. So we strongly recommend that visitors to the theme parks use a touring plan and Lines, our mobile app, to beat whatever crowd you encounter.

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 our statisticians update the calendar every week.
What The Numbers Mean
The crowd level is based on a scale from 1 to 10, with 1 being the least crowded and 10 being most crowded. The scale represents the average wait time between 10am and 5pm at the key attractions. Read more on Crowd Levels.
Choosing The Park To Visit Each Day
Before choosing which park to visit each day you should examine some details about your trip. Our Park Recommendations page will take you step-by-step through your planning to make sure you make the right choice. Read More about Park Recommendations.
