That together with mid to late August, it was a part of the early \u201cfall\u201d low season that\u2019s among the many greatest instances to go to Walt Disney World. (Air quotes round fall for the reason that Disney model of the calendar seems very completely different from precise seasons!) But is mid-August by way of late September nonetheless a very good time to go to Walt Disney World? That\u2019s the query this publish will discover.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve been doing WDW throughout the fall low season so long as we\u2019ve been visiting collectively as adults. It began accidentally, as there was a short window when Free Dining was supplied however our college had but to return into session. We took benefit, and seen that crowds have been <em>a lot\u00a0<\/em>decrease than our prior summer season visits however hours have been nonetheless simply as lengthy.<\/p>\n<p>It was a improbable expertise. We did the now-defunct Pirate &amp; Princess Parties (<em>again then, Mickey\u2019s Not So Scary Halloween Party didn\u2019t begin till mid-September<\/em>), noticed SpectroMagic (<em>generally greater than as soon as per night time!<\/em>), loved night Extra Magic Hours till after midnight (<em>it wasn\u2019t unusual for them to run till 1 or 2 a.m. at MK<\/em>), all whereas having ridiculously good\u2013and big\u2013meals (<em>the Disney Dining Plan included appetizers<\/em>). These journeys shortly turned an annual custom whereas we have been dwelling within the Midwest.<\/p>\n<p>We turned hooked on this time of 12 months and located ourselves routinely returning throughout the \u2018sweet spot\u2019 when hours have been nonetheless lengthy however colleges have been beginning to return into session. Over time, we additionally started doing getaways in September and October, empowered by low cost flights from Indianapolis paired with Southwest Companion Passes, Annual Passes, and decrease fee seasons for Disney Vacation Club (or room reductions, after we ran out of factors).<\/p>\n<p>Then we began spreading the nice phrase about mid-August by way of September to anybody who would hear. Long-time readers of the weblog most likely already know that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.disneytouristblog.com\/best-worst-crowds-disney-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>our #1 month of the 12 months at Walt Disney World<\/strong><\/a> is September.

For us, what totally and eventually \u201ccemented\u201d the standing of September was when not even the opening of Star Wars: Galaxy\u2019s Edge moved the needle on crowds.

It was uncomfortably sizzling final 12 months to the purpose that we discovered ourselves taking extra noon breaks than regular and actually being \u2018beat\u2019 by the climate. At the time, that felt just like the worst climate we\u2019d skilled throughout the August and September low season. It was noticeably hotter, however not essentially surprising or traditionally dangerous. Just worse than regular.<\/p>\n<p>Then the early fall low season of 2023 occurred.\u00a0I\u2019m no stranger to sizzling summers in Central Florida, and the couple weeks I used to be there in mid to late August have been the worst climate I\u2019ve ever skilled at Walt Disney World. My return for Destination D23 in September wasn\u2019t almost as dangerous, however then once more, I spent numerous time in icy-cool conference facilities.<\/p>\n<p>August was so terrible that there have been extreme warmth advisories regularly and the Florida Division of Emergency Management warned residents and guests of dangerously sizzling and humid circumstances. Actual temperatures usually flirted with triple digits, and appears like temperatures routinely hit 110-115\u00b0 all through month.

I\u2019ll be the primary to confess that I don\u2019t have an amazing tolerance for warmth and humidity, however I at the least turned accustomed to it whereas dwelling in Florida. This was not like something I\u2019ve ever skilled in Orlando. About the one factor that compares was a summer season a number of years again at Hong Kong Disneyland, which in some way manages to surpass Central Florida in relation to warmth and humidity.<\/p>\n<p>By definition, report warmth waves are unprecedented and atypical. But this was the second 12 months in a row that I\u2019ve encountered unseasonably sizzling climate throughout the early fall low season. The subsequent few years could possibly be downright nice by comparability, however the development isn&#8217;t your buddy in relation to temperatures. To every their very own, however\u00a0I\u2019m not inclined to gamble on higher climate subsequent 12 months.

Long gone are the times of Magic Kingdom staying open till midnight for normal visitors. Obviously, Extra Magic Hours are a factor of the previous, too. Early Entry and Extended Evening Hours usually are not the identical, both in period or eligibility.<\/p>\n<p>The finish result&#8217;s that there\u2019s now fewer hours that the parks are opening after darkish, which is probably the most nice time of day to do Walt Disney World throughout September. I did Extended Evening Hours a pair instances at Magic Kingdom and EPCOT throughout the newest low season, and it was the busiest I\u2019ve seen it at both park\u2013worse than the height of spring break. And that\u2019s regardless of decrease crowds throughout the board and the corporate self-reporting decrease resort occupancy at Walt Disney World.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m guessing there are a number of causes for Extended Evening Hours getting busier, however the obvious to me can be climate. That extra eligible visitors took noon breaks with the intention of returning to the parks within the night. (Rather than staying all day, getting burnt out, and heading dwelling earlier than ExEH began, as usually occurs.) The inflow of visitors at first of Extended Evening Hours would appear to corroborate this.<\/p>\n<p>Equally regarding is how Walt Disney World quietly shortened hours in September. Lots of consideration has been rightfully paid to Magic Kingdom closing too early or now opening at 9 am on most MNSSHP dates. Walt Disney World chopping hours at EPCOT and Disney\u2019s Hollywood Studios is simply as massive of a deal\u2013and one which has flown below the radar. It\u2019s actually unlucky and if this development repeats itself in September 2024\u2013however not October, November, or December\u2013it should considerably change the calculus on which of those instances is the \u201cbest\u201d to go to.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-56859\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"617\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.disneytouristblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/low-crowds-empty-partners-magic-kingdom-disney-world-1084.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.disneytouristblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/low-crowds-empty-partners-magic-kingdom-disney-world-1084-768x527.jpg 768w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.disneytouristblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/low-crowds-empty-partners-magic-kingdom-disney-world-1084.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-56859\" src=\"https:\/\/www.disneytouristblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/low-crowds-empty-partners-magic-kingdom-disney-world-1084.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"617\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.disneytouristblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/low-crowds-empty-partners-magic-kingdom-disney-world-1084.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.disneytouristblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/low-crowds-empty-partners-magic-kingdom-disney-world-1084-768x527.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>With all of that stated, mid-August by way of late September stays a very interesting timeframe for a number of causes.
