food IS a theme park
The day we warned you about is here: it’s President’s Day! You might be wondering, “What’s the big deal about President’s Day?” Well, in Disney World, those extra few days off invite TONS of guests to visit the parks, which means there are long lines, high wait times, and large crowds pretty much everywhere!
Happy President’s Day!
We’ve been documenting the crowd level all weekend, but now that the official holiday is here, let’s see how busy Disney World looks on President’s Day!
All four Disney parks reached capacity this President’s Day weekend, which means one thing: crowds, crowds, and more crowds. Basically what we’re telling you is this: be prepared to wait if you’re planning to be in the parks on a holiday weekend.
NO THANK YOU
You probably know to expect long lines for Disney’s popular attractions pretty much all year, but during President’s Day weekend, we even saw long lines for FOOD. *cries in hunger* Seriously, even a few scoops of popcorn will cost you a good 10 minutes (at least) in line. Don’t believe us? We’ll show you!
Crowds have been weirdly high in Disney World this January and February — a time that is normally known as the “slow” season — and it doesn’t look like things are going to calm down any time soon!
Yikes
We saw a ton of people in the parks in late January and pretty consistently throughout February so far. There was even a day where it took us twice as long just to get inside Magic Kingdom. The wait times have also remained high for this time of year. And, since Presidents’ Day Weekend is kicking off today, there are a TON of people in the parks.
