food IS a theme park
So we saw Thanksgiving crowds yesterday, but what are Disney World crowds like today?
Cinderella Castle
Today is the debut of the 2021 Festival of the Holidays in EPCOT and a lot of people are visiting for the Thanksgiving holiday, so we weren’t expecting low crowds in Disney World. Still, we were a bit surprised to find two parks VERY busy…and one oddly empty. Let’s get into it!
The Disney World parks are constantly changing, especially with the holiday season quickly approaching.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Today we’re taking a look inside Disney’s Hollywood Studios to see what’s new. We found a bunch of new souvenirs, some holiday decorations, and an update on the ride wait times for you!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios is home to some of Disney World’s biggest rides, like Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Tower of Terror.
Sunset Boulevard
We got some big news today about the virtual queue at Rise of the Resistance and how you can still skip the line with Disney’s new system. But what else is new at Hollywood Studios this week? Let’s find out! [Read more…]
Since we’re in the parks every day, we like to let you know about all the newest things going on!
Hello Hollywood!
Here are a few updates of what’s happening at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, including some changes at restaurants around the park and new merchandise in the shops!
Disney World crowd levels have certainly changed over the past few months.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios Entrance
With changes to capacity limitations and the continued use of the Disney Park Pass theme park reservation system, we’ve been keeping a close eye on the number of people in the Disney World parks. Well, today we noticed a SURPRISING crowd level in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Buckle up: it’s spring break week in Disney World!
Animal Kingdom
We’ve been warning you that spring break would be crowded in the parks, and after a surprisingly quiet weekend, the people have arrived! Disney’s extended park hours in anticipation, and Park Passes have been booked to capacity. So...what do 4 parks at capacity look like during spring break? We braved the crowds and took a look for ya!
EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival started up on Wednesday, and it was pretty busy!
Flower and Garden
Now, that got us wondering. If the first day of an EPCOT festival is such a big draw, what do other parks look like? To answer that question, we’re taking a look at wait times and crowd levels around Disney World yesterday and on other festival kick-offs of the past!
It’s been a little while since all 4 parks in Disney World have reached capacity!
Cinderella Castle Moat
We checked the ticket calendar this morning, and noticed that there was no availability for Park Pass Reservations of any kind. Luckily, we already had our tickets booked, but we knew it was going to be a busy day in Disney World! So we’re taking you with us to check out what the crowds look like when the parks are at capacity!
We’re coming off a holiday weekend in Disney World!
Tower of Terror
Wait times have been on the rise for the last week. We anticipated this increase, and sure enough, the parks have been pretty crowded all weekend! Let’s take a look at what it was like today.
We’re not sure if you’ve heard, but Disney’s Hollywood Studios is a pretty in-demand park.
Hollywood Studios Crowds
Between Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, lots of folks are headed to this park each day. Today, there are NO Disney Park Passes available for the park and, with the return of park hopping, Hollywood Studios is drawing the crowds. See for yourself!
