Our Mickey Visit Crowd Calendars are a resource to help you identify the best times to visit Disneyland, Disney World, Universal Orlando, and Universal Studios Hollywood during your trip planning. We predict crowd levels for each day of the year using a variety of factors. Our crowd calendars are different than others you'll see because we are transparent about the data and decision-making processes for our crowd calendar ratings.
For our Mickey Visit Crowd Calendars, we take into account a variety of factors, including the fluctuation of 1-day ticket prices depending on the season and date, annual passholder blockout dates, historical wait times, and the impact of holidays, school breaks, and ticketed special events. We combine all of this with our detailed knowledge of typical crowd patterns throughout the year, based on our personal experience of frequently visiting the parks.
For each of the crowd calendars, we rate them on a scale of lowest to highest crowds that includes “Very Low Crowds,” “Below Normal Crowds,” “Normal Crowds,” “Above Normal Crowds,” and “Massive Crowds,” each indicated by a specific color.
