"Our TouringPlans subscription was a lifesaver on our trip. One of the busiest days of the year, and we never waited longer than 20 minutes!"

Over the years, Walt Disney World has added more and more special events to its calendar to bring in visitors. Times that were previously known for low crowds now see much higher attendance due to the array of races, parties, and festivals scheduled throughout the year. Halloween at Magic Kingdom now lasts two months, and Christmas begins before Thanksgiving.
The easiest way to find out which of the below events affect crowds is to subscribe to TouringPlans.com and utilize our accurate Crowd Calendar.
