PHOTOS AND VIDEOS: Here’s What Disney World Looks Like At Capacity Today!

With the holidays now upon us, we’ve certainly seen an uptick in crowds at Disney World recently.

And today, all four parks at Disney World have reached capacity. But what does that look like? We’ve got photos and videos from the parks to show you!

Over at Magic Kingdom, things are looking a little more crowded than normal. However, groups are still doing their best to maintain social distancing.

When the princesses came out, it felt about the same — nothing like the pre-2020 days when people would crowd in for parades and character sightings.

Tomorrowland felt a little more cramped than usual.

We’ve seen some pretty long wait times, too. And these long lines weren’t just for rides, but also for food — and coffee!

You could really tell which parts of the parks had bottleneck issues. In those places, though, most people generally kept walking and moving.

Space Mountain had a 55-minute wait at one point.

The wait for Splash Mountain was also 55 minutes when we checked.

Over at Animal Kingdom, the line for Kilimanjaro Safaris was LONG. But we expect that’s because everyone wants to see the baby giraffes!

Pathways at Animal Kingdom were generally full of people, but like at Magic Kingdom, groups kept moving.

Since the parks are now open a little later, we recommend arriving a little later in the day to avoid the morning rush. We’ll continue to keep you updated on crowd levels throughout the holiday season and into the new year!
