How to Skip the Lines with Our Crowd Calendar
What is a crowd calendar?
The Crowd Calendar is the easiest way to see how busy the theme parks are on any given day of the year. When you are starting to plan your Universal and Disney vacations, you can use it to pick the least busy times of year to visit. You can also see historical weather, holidays and special events.
As you get closer to your Universal and Disney vacations, you can use the Crowd Calendar to plan which park (or parks) to visit on any given day. You can also see park opening hours and key show times.
How do we determine crowd levels?
We use wait time data that we’ve collected for more than 20 years in predicting crowd levels —taking into consideration seasonality, holidays, special events, opening hours and other factors that go into planning Disney vacations. We also have unique insight into crowds based on hotel reservations and ticket trends.
Our Crowd Calendar is easy, accurate and helpful in planning Disney vacations — our customer feedback speaks for itself!
"We booked our trip based on the crowd calendar and it was spot on! The longest attraction line we waited in was 20 minutes." - SPettiette
"You guys have, hands down, the best crowd calendar!" - T.H.
"I'd just like to say a thank you in the time you have taken to produce your 'Crowd Calendar'. It is the only one on the net in my eyes that has any form of user friendliness (and I'm a web developer so I appreciate it even more). So far we have planned all or our fast passes etc. in advance using your calendar, and I'm not sure if we'd be anywhere near as organized if it didn't exist." - Steve
How to use the calendar to plan Universal and Disney vacations:
Daily Crowd Level (1-10; noted by color) MOST IMPORTANT!
-
1 - 3Lowest Crowds
-
4 - 6Average Crowds
-
7 - 10Highest Crowds
-
START WITH THE DAY CROWD LEVEL: Most families should only rely on the daily crowd level, ranging from a 1-10. This shows the expected overall crowd level for the theme parks on that day.
OVERALL Orlando theme park crowds are higher on the 11th than on the 9th and 10th.
-
Compare Park Recommendations (optional): Park recommendations should only be used when comparing the same park on days with the same crowd level.
Recommended Park
Busy Day for This Park
For example, if two days are both a 6/10 (Average Crowds) but Magic Kingdom is a recommended park on one of those days (the 13th in this example), then we suggest visiting Magic Kingdom on the 13th instead of the 12th. - LOW, MID OR HIGH SEASON: (optional): Easily find the estimated theme park ticket price levels for each day. For example, the 9th falls under low season pricing.
- VIEW HOURS, EVENTS & MORE: You can filter by hours, events, holidays and more for planning your Disney vacation.
