Crowds dec 21-25

[OswaldTheRabbit]

I was curious if crowds are the same for all of Christmas week or if it gets crowded starting 26-new years?

We are thinking of going this year (dec21-28) and was curious what the week will look like. I assume the worst for the later half of the week of course!

Past experience...it is more crowded between Christmas and New Year's.

The closer to Christmas & New Years the more crowded it will be. Try to get to the popular attractions & your must dos done early in your trip so you don't feel as pressured with large crowds.

According to Touring Plans, Dec 21 is 8/10 all other days you listed are 10/10.

Thanks! We just booked so hopefully it won't be too overwhelming! But since we are disney frequent fliers at least we don't have to "do everything".

We are going to do the candlelight processional on Christmas Day so that will be new and special! Just booked out reservation. Got biergarten so my German husband will be happy!

I would love to do Christmas - New Year at WDW. I'm waiting until our kids are probably teens though. If it was just us I would do it since we don't have to do everything either. As long as you are prepared and give yourself extra time to get from place to place due to crowds you should be fine.

We actually have 2 boys (9&4) and are going for it anyway. Normally we wouldn't but we don't live by family anymore (12 hr drive) and so we are meeting them in disney at the beginning of November to cebrate early. I also want to go visit some of the resorts since we will have a car this trip!
